The water cycle

The water cycle is a continuous process of evaporation, condensation, precipitation and collecction. 

• The Sun heats the water in oceans, rivers, lakes, etc. The water turns int water vapour and goes up. This process is called evaporation. 
• The water vapour goes up. Whe the air becomes cooler the water vapour changes into liquid again and it forms clouds. This is called condensation. 
• When the clouds are full of water it rains or snows. This is called precipitation.
• The water or snow falls into rivers, streams, lakes and they carry ot to the ocean again. This is calld collection.
