Hello! I am creating a water cycle lesson for 4th graders, however, these 4th graders have been exposed to the Water Cycle since 1st grade (since the TEK only recently changed). So, I would really appreciate some input as to how I would make the lesson more exciting and engaging, rather than just being a long review for them. Thank you! 

Hi Kelly,

I found an article in the Learning Center that discusses a formative assessment probe you can use when teaching the water cycle. Check it out here:

Also, you could try this web seminar archive from the Global Precipitation Measurement Mission to learn about their resources regarding the water cycle:

Good luck!
