Exploring the Water Cycle Lesson

Engage students in understanding the water cycle with this educational lesson created by the GPM Education and Public Outreach Team at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center. Students will learn about the stages of the water cycle, the role of solar radiation and gravity, and the importance of studying and understanding the water cycle. Includes interactive activities and videos.
