Earth’s Water Cycle

This week we learnt about the Earth’s water cycle. The Water cycle starts with evaporation when the warmth of the sun causes the water in the ocean, lakes, pond, soil, and snow to turn into vapor which rises into the atmosphere. Then it condensates. Condensation is once the vapor is high in the air, it cools down and forms back into tiny droplets cling together and forms clouds, fog, and mist. Then precipitation. Precipitation is when the air that the clouds are in can no longer hold any more water, the droplets fall down together as rain. If the air is cold enough, the rain turns to snow. Next is a runoff. The water that fall down onto the earth’s surface always seek lower ground. The water forms into streams and rivers and runs down to lower elevation. Then is collection. The collection is when the streams and rivers empty into larger bodies of water, like ponds, lakes, and oceans. Then it starts all over again.

We had to put one bag in another bag then draw the water cycle on it. then we put blue water in it and taped it to the window. Here is a photo of mine and Makrita’s.

 

My holidays

This story is about what I did in the holidays.

On the holiday my mum went to the world of wearable art. She got drunk after the show and we had to pick her up from Wellington at ten o’clock at night. When we got home it was midnight. on Saturday my mum, her boyfriend and Isabelle went to the warehouse in Paraparaumu and got some Lego for Isabelle and me. Isabelle got a monster truck with big wheels and I got a ski and a big Lego yacht. It took three days to make because, we had to wait for my Isabelle to go to sleep or she would play with all the little pieces and lose some of them. We had to clean out our china cabinet to make room for the boat to fit in. We washed all the cups that were in the China cabinet and cleaned everything in it.

On Thursday my mum and Isabelle had to go to Palmerston north at six o’clock in the morning. Because Isabelle had to get her tonsils removed. They had to stay at the hospital overnight and Isabelle could only eat soft food like ice-cream, jelly, lolly-pops and milk shakes. When they arrived home on friday, we ate lunch then went to wellington to drop off my mum’s boyfriend at the airport. then we went to a friend’s house for dinner. On Saturday we watched movies all day and ate popcorn and lollies. On Sunday we went to church.
