Part A: What are the steps of the water cycle? Put the first step at the top, and the last at the bottom. (RI.3.1, RI.3.3)

Water evaporates into the air as water vapor
As water vapor rises, it cools into tiny water droplets.
The water droplets form clouds, which collect more and more water droplets.
When water droplets get too heavy, they fall from the clouds as rain, hail, or snow.
Precipitation (rain, hail, and snow) returns to rivers, lakes, and oceans.
