What is adult?
Rain, snow, sleet, and hail are all types of this water cycle process.
What is precipitation?
When it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere, it's this season in the Southern Hemisphere.
What is winter?
This season comes after winter and is when many plants start to grow new leaves and flowers.
What is spring?
Trees provide this gas that people and animals need to breathe.
What is oxygen?
A life cycle is the stages of growth of a living thing that do this over and over.
What is repeat?
This process happens when the sun heats water and turns it into water vapor.
What is evaporation?
Earth is ____ , which helps create our seasons.
What is tilted (or angled)?
During this season, many animals migrate south and leaves change colors.
What is autumn (or fall)?
This stage comes after a seed germinates in a flowering plant's life cycle.
What is a seedling?

What is tadpole?
This process occurs when water vapor cools and forms droplets in clouds.
What is condensation?
Earth's spinning motion that causes day and night every 24 hours.
What is rotation?

The four stages of a butterfly's life cycle: egg, larva (caterpillar), this stage, and adult.
What is pupa (or chrysalis)?
The three main processes in the water cycle.
What are evaporation, condensation, and precipitation?
This movement of Earth around the sun takes 365 days (which is 1 year) and causes the seasons.
What is revolution?

What are oxygen, shelter/homes, and food? (Accept other reasonable answers like shade, wood, etc.)

What is metamorphosis?
