Alejandro is studying weather. He gets weather data from 3 cities. A map of the 3 cities is shown below. Use the weather data and the map to answer the questions that follow.
2
What process causes water to move from the land or the ocean into the atmosphere?
A) EvaporationB) CondensationC) Precipitation
What process causes water to move from the land or the ocean into the atmosphere?
A) Evaporation
B) Condensation
C) Precipitation
Criteria For Success:
Think:
- Determine which city is near a body of water
- Identify the temperature of that city
- Determine if that city would have the most water moving into the atmosphere.
Write:
- Claim: Identify the city that would have the most water moving into the atmosphere during the day
- Evidence: Use evidence from BOTH the weather data and the map to support your claim.
- Reasoning: Name AND Explain the phase change and temperature that causes water to move into the atmosphere.

Claim: The city that would have the most water moving during the day is ________________.
Evidence:In the weather data, it shows ______________
On the map, it shows _______________
Reasoning:________________ City would have the most water in the atmosphere during the day because ________________

The next week the temperature in New York, NY rises (increased) to 85° F. Would you expect more or less water to move into the atmosphere in New York? Why?
A) More water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause more evaporationB) More water would evaporate because higher temperatures cause more evaporationC) Less water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause less evaporation

A) More water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause more evaporation
B) More water would evaporate because higher temperatures cause more evaporation
C) Less water would evaporate because lower temperatures cause less evaporation
Criteria For Success:
- Claim - Identify the amount of water vapor on West Ferris and what happens to the water vapor.
- Evidence - Use evidence from the simulation to explain what happens to the water vapor that causes more rain.
- Reasoning:
- Explain evaporation - Explain the phase change, identify the temperature, and how the distance between molecules changed.
- Explain condensation - Explain the phase change, identify the temperature, and how the distance between molecules changed.
- Explain what is precipitation
- Explain how raindrops form
