It follows a cycle of evaporation, condensation and precipitation. |\n\n\n| Key Water Cycle Vocabulary |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Evaporation | Is the process by which water changes from a liquid to a gas. The change of state is due to an increase in temperature. |\n| Condensation | The process of water vapour in the atmosphere cools and changes into liquid water. This is the result of hot air becoming cool. |\n| Precipitation | Water that falls from the clouds towards the ground e.g. rain, hail, sleet or snow. |\n| Collection | Precipitation is collected in bodies of water, such as rivers, lakes and oceans. |\n| Runoff | Is precipitation that did not get absorbed into the soil and makes its way from the surface into places where water collects. |\n\n\n| A River’s Journey |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| The River Channel\u003Cbr>All rivers tend to follow the same pattern: asthe flow from the source of the mouth, they start of narrow and end up wider; they start of straight and end up meandering.\u003Cbr>| The River Valley\u003Cbr>The land near the source is high and steep. Heading towards the mouth the land gets lower and flatter. The narrow V-shaped valleys open out, eventually becoming wide, flat flood plains.\u003Cbr>|\n\n\n| Key River Vocabulary |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Erosion | The wearing away of rock, stones and soil by rivers, waves, wind, or glaciers. |\n| Source | Where the river/stream begins. This is usually high up. |\n| Tributary | Is a stream or river that flows into a larger river or lake. |\n| Confluence | The point at which two rivers or streams join. |\n| Meander | A winding curve or bend in a river. They are typical of the middle and lower course of a river. |\n| Floodplain | Is the flat land of the river valley close to the river banks. It is usually found in the lower course of a river. |\n| Delta | An area of low flatland where a river divides into several smaller rivers before flowing into the sea. |\n| Estuary | Occurs near or at the mouth of a river, where the tide meets the current and the fresh and salt waters mix. |\n| Mouth | The place where a river enters a lake, larger river or the ocean. |","cbCaif5QJqm4NOoW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaif5QJqm4NOoW","pdf",222373,"English","# The Water Cycle\n## Key Water Cycle Vocabulary\n# A River’s Journey\n## Key River Vocabulary","[{\"question\":\"What are the main stages of the water cycle?\",\"answer\":\"The water cycle follows evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, moving water from land to the sky and back again.\"},{\"question\":\"How are collection and runoff connected to precipitation?\",\"answer\":\"Precipitation is collected in bodies of water like rivers, lakes, and oceans.
