Water Cycle Model 
3D Water Cycle
The students will create a 3D model. PowerPoint, Padlet, or other media source of the water cycle. They will use ideas such as using a bottle, shoebox, storybook (pop up), poster-size diorama, or other 3D project ideas to make their project. The goal of this assessment is to see how much the students know and can explain about the water cycle.
