Help me get started
“I notice ____. The source shows ____. I still need to check ____.”
You can point to the source while someone helps you say or write your answer.
- Body of water / water vapor in air / cloud droplets / ground
- Label every arrow with the movement
- Grades 3–5: rainwater runoff → lake collection
- Evidence — which source supports each arrow?
An oral response or a drawing counts too. You do not have to fill these boxes to join the activity.
Check my thinking
What am I looking for?
I can label water moving into the air, forming cloud droplets and falling back to the ground.
One possible response
Water from a lake can evaporate into air. Tiny water droplets form clouds. Water falls back as rain or snow.
This is a teacher-created example, not a quotation or the only possible answer. Compare it with the selected source and your own response.
