Did you know that the sun is actually the driving force behind the water cycle? The sun’s energy heats water, causing it to evaporate into the atmosphere and start the water cycle.
Each year, fourth graders in Buckeye learn this fun fact: water travels through the water cycle through methods like evaporation, condensation, precipitation, percolation, and flow. As water travels through Earth’s natural systems, it constantly changes form! Think of snow going from frozen to melted, or boiling water turning to steam. It is always adapting.![]()
