A Drop's Many Journeys
Follow one drop. Discover more than one water cycle.
The learner experience
A little curiosity. A lasting understanding.
A narrated sequence follows water from a puddle into the atmosphere, then to a hillside, soil, and stream. An alternate ending shows storage as ice. The story itself needs no clicks or choices.
Imagine this moment
A rain-filled landscape transitions into a layered view of water above and below ground.
Learning & evidence
The learning objective
Explain evaporation, condensation, and precipitation, and recognize that water can follow different routes and remain stored.
What understanding looks like
After viewing, learners sequence three processes and explain where water could go next. Watching or finishing the video alone is not evidence of understanding.
Adaptation
Different starting points. A shared objective.
Teacher selects a shorter vocabulary-light version or an expanded version with runoff and infiltration; provide captions and a transcript.
Educator review
This is a proposed experience. Content and assessment require teacher review before classroom use.
