Water is vital to all life on Earth and covers nearly three-fourths of our planet's surface. Where does it come from? Will we use it up eventually? In The Water Cycle, students learn that the Earth has the same water supply today as it did millions of years ago. Examine the amazing process by which water is continually recycled and transported from place to place through evaporation, condensation and precipitation. Also find out how energy from the Sun drives the water cycle and how the atmosphere prevents water from slipping away from Earth.
Have you ever wondered about the science all around us? Plants grow and change, the Sun rises to warm the Earth, and matter changes from one form to another. Investigate Life, Physical, Earth,and Technology science topics with Rourke’s My Science Library. This library explores NSTA science standards with engaging text and colorful images to support readers from kindergarten to third grade. Are you ready to investigate?
Even though nearly three-fourths of the world's surface is covered by water, only a very small portion of it is fresh water. So what happens when it's all used up? It won't, which is just one of the amazing facts children will learn in All About the Water Cycle. Discover the amazing process by which Earth's water supply has been recycled over millions of years, centering on three stages: evaporation, condensation and precipitation.
Getting a child's attention is hard enough, but holding it is the real challenge. This exciting series takes young readers to the farthest reaches of the Solar System, to every corner of the globe, back to the ancient myths of Greece and Rome, and inside the circuitry of the walls in their homes.
