The Water Cycle

13 September 2016 Tuesday Week 8 Term 3
Written - The water cycle.


Their is the same amount of water on earth today as when the earth was created. Water is extremely important for your life of survival for human beings, plants and animals. I will provide you with an explanation about how water is recycled.


The water cycle is also called the hydro logical cycle. The cycle includes precipitation, evaporation, condensation and transpiration. The water then changes from liquid to vapour then back into liquid again.


Firstly water from lakes, rivers, streams and seas are heated by the sun and evaporates. When the water evaporates it forms clouds by condensation. When clouds become heavy then it falls down as rain assisted by gravity. If the rain falls down in a solid form then it turns into snow and sleet.


When the water reaches the ground and flows across the land until it reaches the rivers, lakes, streams and sea. Some water also sinks into the ground.

The water cycle begins all over again and even evaporation.

Personification


Everyone knows what a person is, but do you know what personification is? A personification is when you assign human qualities to something that isn’t alive.


Examples of personification.

  1. The stars danced playfully in the moonlit sky.
  2. The run down house appeared depressed.
  3. The first rays of the morning tiptoed through the meadow.
  4. The bees played hide and seek with the flowers as they buzzed from one to another.
  5. The river swallowed the earth as the water continued to rise higher and higher.
  6. The thunder grumbled like an old man.
  7. At precisely 6:30 am my alarm clock sprang into life.
  8. The news took me by surprise.
  9. The evil tree was lurking in the shadows.
  10. The ocean danced in the moon light.
