About Water Cycle Diagram for Class 3

The water cycle is the continuous journey water takes as it moves between the oceans, atmosphere, and land. Heat from the Sun evaporates water from oceans, rivers, and lakes, turning it into invisible water vapour that rises into the atmosphere.

Why It's Important

  • Refills rivers, lakes, and groundwater
  • Supplies the fresh water we drink and use daily
  • Distributes heat and moisture around the planet
  • Supports every plant and animal that needs water

Observation Points

  • Watch the sun heating water at the surface
  • Follow the rising vapour to where clouds form
  • Observe precipitation falling back down
  • Notice where the water collects afterward

Learning Objectives

  • Identify the main stages of the water cycle
  • Explain what drives evaporation and condensation
  • Describe how water is reused again and again
  • Understand why the water cycle never stops

Summary

The water cycle recycles the same water endlessly between the ocean, sky, and land, through evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, keeping fresh water flowing to every part of the planet.

Main Parts

PartFunction
EvaporationSun heats water, turning it into vapour
CondensationVapour cools and forms clouds
PrecipitationWater falls as rain, snow, or hail
CollectionWater gathers in rivers, lakes, and oceans
InfiltrationWater soaks into the ground as groundwater

How It Works

Sun heats water and it evaporates
Water vapour rises and cools
Vapour condenses into clouds
Water falls back to Earth as precipitation
Water collects and the cycle repeats
