Is most of the water on Earth fresh or salt water? Explain how you know.

• Salt water because it's in our rivers.

• Fresh water because we drink fresh water.

• Salt water. We know ocean water is salt water. Most of Earth's water is ocean.

How does the book define a glacier?

• Liquid water

• Snow

• Very large bodies of frozen, solid ice.

• Ice cubes

How can you tell from the picture on page 19 that the glacier is solid, frozen water rather than liquid water?

• It is shaped like a mountain.

• It's dripping.

• It's white.

• Made from tightly packed snow/ice, which is solid water since it's frozen.

How/Where are glaciers made?

• Mountains. Snow and ice harden and pack together over long periods of time.

• Mother Nature.

• Santa Clause.

• Ice and snow started to build from sea level (low heights)

Infer- What happens to the ground underneath the glacier as the glacier moves down the mountain?

• It freezes.

• It stays put and doesn't move.

• Since the ground underneath is usually sandy and rocky, the ground usually gets swept away.

• Nothing.

If you could be any body of water, what would you be and why?

Where is most of Earth's water found?

• Lakes because they store water

• Oceans because most of the earth is ocean

• Rain because it falls from the sky
