The Water Cycle: Energy and Forces

Give students a chance to explore the energy and forces that are responsible for cycling water through Earth’s systems with this engaging science worksheet! Designed for middle school learners, this two-page worksheet begins by asking students to match water cycle vocabulary words to their definitions. Then students will use the same vocabulary words to label a water cycle diagram. Finally, learners will use their critical thinking skills to answer questions about the energy and forces that drive the water cycle.
