Does the Water cycle go round and round?

                                                                                                                  
Q: how does the water cycle work? can it go left to right?    
Answer: yes it can. The water cycles go round in a circle it goes up then down and goes on and on

this is the water cycle
There are 3 stages in the water cycle.  These stages are evaporation/ condensation/ precipitation/
all off these make up the water cycle.

the way it goes is evaporation first. Evaporation is when tiny little drops (that you can not see) rise up from oceans/lakes/plants and streams. When the tiny little drops rise up in the sky it turns into condensation

Condensation is when those tiny little drops in the sky turn into clouds they get bigger and bigger then its called precipitation

Precipitation is when the clouds get too big and the clouds into big black clouds. the little drops then fall down to the ground.
Then it rains from the clouds that evaporated,this could cause lightning, thunder or a storm.
As the drops falls down to the ground it then turns into surface run off which means the water runs off mountains and into the streams, lakes or rivers. then the water gets evaporated again.

This is called the water cycle.
                                                                                            
our classes made this 3-dimensional water cycle
