1 Teaching notes Water Cycle Game This activity requires a dice, a set of water cycle cards and a copy of the journey record sheet per child. This can be played individually or as a group. The children begin as a droplet of water in a cloud waiting to start their journey! To begin, roll a dice then look at the cloud card to see where to go next. The children need to record not only the place, but also how they get there. An example is set out below with actions shown in orange - these would not be recorded: Instructions. Your journey is about to begin Roll the dice: Are you in the river, ocean, stream or groundwater? (6 rolled) Roll again, where to next? (6 rolled) Keep rolling! Remember to record your journey and how you got there. (4 rolled) Record your journey here. I am a tiny droplet of water in a cloud. (cloud card) I fall as rain in a river. (river card) I am piped into a home for human use. (human use card) I am used in the washing machine and after being cleansed am released to the lake. Final roll of the dice! Where did you eventually end up? Children continue the journey until the final roll of the dice. They are then asked to complete the journey review. As an extension activity the children can write out their journey as a narrative using descriptive language e.g. I was drifting in the clouds when I started to feel a bit chilly. I fell as a beautiful snowflake, tumbling slowly down onto a mountainside, but it was a warm day and before I knew it I melted and rushed down the mountain in to a fast flowing stream Page 1 of 6
