E Unit 1 Lesson 2 The Water Cycle

What is the water cycle?

• The movement of water between the atmosphere, land, ocean, and living things

• The process of water changing state from liquid to gas

• The movement of water from place to place by ocean currents

• The process of water evaporating from the oceans
