Are you looking for a fun activity to do with your class about the water cycle? This creative water cycle cube is the perfect activity to do with your students and will also work perfectly as a classroom display! In this project, students will build a 3D project cube to describe the components of the water cycle. Through this project, they’ll show their understanding of the following:

• The different steps of the water cycle.
• Describing and providing examples:
  • Condensation
  • Precipitation
  • Evaporation
  • Collection

• Evaporation
• Condensation
• Precipitation
• Collection
