The mountain-model visitorYear 4 Science · T1 W7–8 · Assessment / D later source
Made-up story. At a pretend mountain exhibition, a visitor asks, “How could lake water reach the sea as rain?” The model card lists lake liquid → evaporation → invisible water vapour in air → condensation → cloud droplets → precipitation → ocean water. A second branch shows precipitation to land. No amount, travel time or weather forecast is supplied. The visitor needs a short explanation of the possible process, not a promised rain date. Choose a written, drawn, signed, spoken, dictated or typed response.
Four questions
- Answer this visitor using the three process names.
- What changes in the second branch?
- Who are you helping, and with what question?
- Give one useful limit.
