Water Cycle in a Bag
This worksheet walks your students through the procedure for this water cycle experiment while also giving them a place to record their observations and demonstrate what they have learned. While not as thorough as the final assessment quiz, this could be used as evidence of learning against the Science Knowledge curriculum code.
It is a part of a unit based on the Year 4 Australian national science curriculum. It is designed to build on students' prior knowledge of the states of matter while introducing a basic understanding of the water cycle.
Learning goals
- We are learning to identify sources of water and describe the parts of the water cycle (precipitation, evaporation and condensation), including movement of water through the sky, land and ocean.
Curriculum alignment
Australian Curriculum covers QLD / SA / WA / NT / TAS / ACT.
