Continue your LKS2 unit on the water cycle with this PowerPoint presentation on why water is in the air, which focuses on condensation.
After learning key vocabulary, children will retrieve facts about evaporation from the previous lesson then think about when they have seen condensation on a window. After a quick reminder about the water cycle's four stages, they will focus on condensation: what is is, what causes it and what happens. They will link to real-life examples such as dew or how it can be seen on a bathroom mirror!
For their tasks, they will carry out an experiment to investigate how water droplets attract (which forms clouds) and make a 'cloud jar' before thinking more deeply about how too much or too little condensation would impact the world then finishing with engaging assessment questions so you can gauge what has been learnt throughout this exciting geography lesson.
Don't waste any time; download today and make a splash when teaching your class about the wonderful world of the water cycle!
