Here are the solutions for the worksheets shown.
Worksheet 1: The Water Cycle
This page asks you to color the different parts of the water cycle. Since I cannot color the image for you, here is a guide on what each part represents so you can color them correctly:
*
Sun: Provides heat energy.
*
Cloud: Holds water vapor that has condensed.
*
Rain: Water falling from clouds (precipitation).
*
Lake: A collection of surface water.
*
Aquifer: Underground water stored in rocks and soil.
*
Arrows: Show the movement of water (evaporation going up, precipitation coming down, groundwater flowing).
Worksheet 2: Save or Waste?
You need to circle whether the action in each picture is saving water or wasting it.
1.
Pouring a full glass of water down the sink: This is
WASTE. You should only pour out what you don't drink.
2.
Pouring extra water on a plant: This is
WASTE. Plants only need a certain amount; too much runs off.
3.
Leaving a bathtub tap running: This is
WASTE. You should turn the tap off while filling or use less water.
4.
Taking a short shower: This is
SAVE. Shorter showers use less water than long ones.
5.
Brushing teeth with water off: This is
SAVE. Turning the tap off while brushing saves a lot of water.
6.
Brushing teeth with water on: This is
WASTE. Letting the water run while you brush wastes it.
