Mastery Evidence
- Describe the complete water cycle using at least four correct technical terms in the right order
- Distinguish 'evaporation' from 'condensation' and explain where each occurs in the water cycle
- Use 'water vapour' and 'precipitation' correctly in descriptions of weather and the water cycle
Assessment Prompt
Can your child explain where the puddle goes after it stops raining — using words like 'evaporation' or 'water vapour' rather than just 'it dries up'?
