To illustrate the life cycle of water we boiled a pot of water and then, once the water was boiling, we put a plate above the pot. Then we had a look at the plate to see it was covered with drops of water which is vapour that has cooled and turned back into liquid.
Then, to end off the experiment, we made a simple rain gauge to measure the rainfall over the next couple of days. Our ragdoll cat, Gadget, thinks it is something to eat as seen in the pic below so not sure how much rain we will collect!!
We ended with a read aloud from one of Jacqui Baileys Science works books A drop in the ocean.
