What children learn in Level 24

Welcome to Water Cycle Falls! Water is everywhere, and it comes in three states: solid, liquid, and gas.
Ice is solid water. It keeps its own shape: an ice cube stays a cube.
Liquid water flows. Pour it into a cup or a bowl, and it takes that shape, but the amount stays the same.
Water vapor is water as a gas. It's invisible, and it spreads out to fill any space. There's water vapor in the air around you right now!
Fog and clouds look like vapor, but they're really tiny drops of liquid water, too small to fall.

Georgia Standards of Excellence in Science:

S4E3.a — Plan and carry out investigations to observe the flow of energy in water as it changes states from solid (ice) to liquid (water) to gas (water vapor) and changes from gas to liquid to solid.
