5. Worksheet - Zone 7 Water Agency - Free Printable

Let’s solve this step by step.

We are given a word bank:
cloud, ice, lake, rain, snow, steam

And we need to match each picture to the correct form of water — Solid, Liquid, or Vapor — and write the right word in the blanks below each picture.

---

Step 1: Look at the “Solid” row

There are two pictures under “Solid”:

- Left: A snowman → made of snow (which is solid water)
- Right: Two ice cubes melting → that’s ice (also solid)

So:
- Snowman → snow
- Ice cubes → ice

Check word bank: both “snow” and “ice” are there ✔

---

Step 2: Look at the “Liquid” row

Two pictures:

- Left: Cloud with raindrops falling → that’s rain (liquid water)
- Right: A body of water with birds → that’s a lake (also liquid)

So:
- Rain cloud → rain
- Lake → lake

Check word bank: both “rain” and “lake” are there ✔

---

Step 3: Look at the “Vapor” row

Two pictures:

- Left: Pot with steam rising → that’s steam (water vapor)
- Right: Fluffy clouds in sky → those are clouds (made of tiny water droplets or ice crystals, but in this context, they’re grouped under vapor as part of the water cycle)

Wait — let’s think carefully.

In science, vapor usually means water in gas form — like steam. But clouds are actually made of tiny *liquid* droplets or *solid* ice crystals — not pure vapor. However, in kindergarten-level worksheets, sometimes “clouds” are associated with vapor because they come from evaporation.

But look at the word bank: we have steam and cloud.

The pot has steam coming out → definitely steam.

The sky has clouds → so that must be cloud.

Also, note: the worksheet says “Color in each form of water” — and lists “cloud” in the word bank, so it’s expecting us to use it.

So:
- Steaming pot → steam
- Sky clouds → cloud

✔ Both words are in the bank.

Final Matching:

Solid:
- Snowman → snow
- Ice cubes → ice

Liquid:
- Rain cloud → rain
- Lake → lake

Vapor:
- Steaming pot → steam
- Sky clouds → cloud

Now, fill in the blanks under each picture with the correct word.

Each blank box corresponds to one letter? Wait — no, looking again:

Actually, under each picture, there are boxes — probably for writing the whole word, not one letter per box. Because some words are short (“ice”, “rain”) and some longer (“steam”, “cloud”). The number of boxes doesn’t match letters — for example, “snow” has 4 letters, and there are 4 boxes under snowman. “Ice” has 3 letters, 3 boxes. “Rain” = 4 letters, 4 boxes. “Lake” = 4 letters, 4 boxes. “Steam” = 5 letters, 5 boxes. “Cloud” = 5 letters, 5 boxes.

Perfect! So each box is for one letter.

So we write:

Under snowman: S N O W
Under ice cubes: I C E
Under rain cloud: R A I N
Under lake: L A K E
Under steaming pot: S T E A M
Under sky clouds: C L O U D

Final Answer:

Snowman → snow
Ice cubes → ice
Rain cloud → rain
Lake → lake
Steaming pot → steam
Sky clouds → cloud
