=Previous discussion: the water cycle.= Five key words to talk about at home would be: __Evaporation__ - the act of heat turning the liquid water on earth into vapor (gas state of water) and it rising into the air. __Condensation__ - the act of the vapor in the air cooling and condensing into a cloud, turning the vapor back into the liquid state. __Precipitation__ - the condensed water falling back to the earth as rain, snow, sleet, hail, etc. __Melting__ - heating up a solid to turn it to a liquid (ice to water) __Freezing__ - removing heat (making it cold) to turn it from a liquid to a solid (water to ice)
