Exercise
Form 5: The Water Cycle Across Spheres
In this engaging exercise, students will explore the interconnected processes of the water cycle, analyzing how water moves through the atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere, and biosphere. By conducting hands-on experiments and creating visual diagrams, learners will deepen their understanding of the cycle's critical role in Earth's ecosystems.
