My Project

"Water is the driving force of all nature." Leonardo da Vinci.

Water is vital to our survival, especially here in Nevada, yet many of my students know little about it's amazing process.

By using these materials, my students will gain a strong understanding of the water cycle and reasons for its conservation. They will read fascinating books about the water cycle. They will complete interesting, exciting investigations and simulations, seeing first hand, the water cycle progression. Once learned, they will use vocabulary correctly: condensation, evaporation, and precipitation to demonstrate their understanding of the water cycle.

With your support, my students will receive materials needed to support an exciting science unit about the water cycle and they will understand the great importance water plays in their everyday lives!
