Read the scenario and tell what happened?

A WET sponge was put into an empty bucket. The bucket was placed outside at the HOTTEST part of the day in the sun. After a few hours that sponge was DRY.

• The sun condensed the water.

• The water was used for drinking.

• The sun evaporated the water.

• The water fell out of the sponge.

Read this scenario and tell what happened:

A glass of cold water was taken from the refrigerator and set on a table. Soon there was water on the outside of the glass. Where did the water come from?

• Someone poured water on the table.

• Ice melted and the lemonade overflowed.

• No one knows where the water came from.

• The ice created condensation that formed water on the outside of the glass.

Let's imagine that you are teaching a science lesson about the three states of matter. Using an ice cube, how could you plan an investigation to demonstrate how a solid changes to a liquid?

• Begin by adding heat to the ice cube.

• Begin by taking heat away from the ice cube.

• Begin by putting the cube in a glass.

• Begin by dropping the cube to the ground.

Imagine you are creating a model of the water cycle to show what happens to a water droplet that just fell to the ground as snow. What should you include next in the model and why?

• Nothing will happen because the water droplet reached the end of the water cycle.

• The water droplet will eventually evaporate because that's the next step in the water cycle.

• The water droplet will begin to condense and form a new cloud.

• The water droplet will turn into rain because it is precipitation.

Imagine you are scoring students for labeling the water cycle model. Which student correctly labeled the cycle?

• Label B should condensation because water moves from a river to a larger body of water.

• Label A shows precipitation because the water is running off from the stream to the water.

• Label A shows precipitation because the water is falling from the heavy clouds.

• Label B should condensation because water is formed at ground level.
