Explore all things water cycle in a truly engaging interactive. Water enthusiasts look at water as a system. They label the parts of the water cycle as they learn about them in a hands on activity, and then participate in a game where they take on the role of a water droplet traveling through different parts of the water cycle. The resource even comes with a science notebook printable for users to fill out as they explore the interactive.
