This is a comic srtip that shows and explains my water droplets journey in the water cycle. This is based off of the table of information that I created seeing which way my water droplet will go through the water cycle. This is graded, so make sure to look at the rubric below: (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1vIOlCBUL9uEKAl7IeVTccb2n5pZHTCWIVDAuem6WueI/edit)
to make sure that you met the objectives and hopefully exceeded them.

I start my journey in a lake.
I stay in the soil as groundwater.
Gravity is pulling me into a river nearby.
My water droplet starts its journey in a lake. A lake is a collection of water. There are many ways that my water droplet could go through the water cycle. It gets infiltrated into the soil. This is called groundwater. This is when water gets absorbed into the soil.
A deer is drinking me from the river.
My water droplet stays in the soil. It may be days, weeks or years that it stays as ground water. It is in the geosphere. A geosphere is the part of the Earth's surface that is covered in soil.
I was evaporated from the deer's breath and am now being condensed into a cloud.
Now, gravity is pulling our water droplet into a river. A river a part of the hydrosphere. A hydrosphere is the part of the Earth's surface that is covered in water. The majority of the Earth is covered in the hydrosphere. Our water droplet could travel for miles in a river before it could reach a destination. A river is part of a surface runoff (it can lead water from one place to the other.
I traveled around the world in a cloud and now I am falling as a snowflake into a glacier.
Our water droplets journey is cut short because a deer is drinking out the river (is drinking our water droplet from the river). Our whole voyage so far is part of the biosphere. The biosphere is the region of the Earth that contains living organisms. The hydrosphere (water), the lithosphere (land), the atmosphere (air), and the geosphere (soil), all house living organisms so they are all considered part of the biosphere.
Our water droplet was evaporated from the deers breath. It was evaporated into a cloud as water vapor. Then it was being condensed into a cloud. This is part of the atmosphere. The atmosphere is the gases surrounding the Earth.
My water droplet ends as snow snowing on a glacier. Glaciers collect water and then condenses it into ice. Water could be trapped in a glacier for millions of years. A glacier is part of the cryosphere. The cryosphere is the parts of the Earth's surface that are solid ice. My water droplet did not transpire during this voyage, but possibly the next round of the water cycle that my water droplet goes through transpiration.
