This easy worksheet keeps first graders moving through the water cycle with fresh vocabulary and friendly review. Children trace drops, puddle, vapor, cloud, rain, and cycle, then fill in four sentences about water heating into vapor, vapor rising into the sky, clouds letting go of rain, and the cycle repeating in a loop. Three true or false questions tackle two common mix-ups young learners face — that water vapor is invisible (not the cloud you see) and that the cycle keeps running at night, even while children sleep.

Use this sheet after a rainy day so first graders can match the puddles outside to the word puddle they just traced.
