Dice for The Incredible Journey, A Water Cycle Adventure

pinshape

I worked at an outdoor education facility for fifth graders for many years and one lesson we used to make the water cycle more interactive was called "The Incredible Journey" by Project WET. A synopsis of the lesson can be found here: http://files.dnr.state.mn.us/e... Now a third-grade teacher, I still use this lesson to this day. This file contains eight dice to facilitate "The Incredible Journey." I adapted the number of dice from nine to eight since we don't teach transpiration in third grade. I removed the plant dice and instead use it as an extension at the end of the lesson: "Can you think of other water reservoirs not listed as a station in this activity?" This clarifies plants' role without discussing transpiration. My only advice on printing is to ensure Ground Water is not face down on the die, but rather on the side or top, as the print turns out better this way.
