2nd Grade Science › Liquid and Solid States of Water
Which answer choice is an example of solid and liquid water on Earth?
Solid - waterfall
Liquid - rain
Solid - hail
Liquid - rain
Solid - snow
Liquid - hail
Solid - rain
Liquid - waterfall
Explanation
Earth has both liquid and solid water present. An example of how both of these forms can be found on Earth is that hail is solid, and rain is a liquid. They are both water but just in different forms. Students will learn about other forms of water and how they change in upper grade-levels.
This is a location where water is found on Earth. What is the name of this location?
Swamp
Ocean
Glacier
Groundwater
Explanation
This is a photo of a swamp. A swamp is a low-lying area that collects water. Water can be found everywhere on Earth though! Water can be found underground, in oceans, seas, ponds, lakes, rivers, glaciers, streams, our atmosphere, and more. This is just one location to find water on Earth.

Water is found in many places on Earth. This large chunk of ice is one form water may take. This photo is of a __________.
glacier
pond
stream
swamp
Explanation
This is a photo of a glacier. A glacier is a slow-moving chunk of frozen water. Water can be found everywhere on Earth, though! Water can be found underground, in oceans, seas, ponds, lakes, rivers, swamps, streams, our atmosphere, and more. This is just one location to find water on Earth.

How could water be changed from its solid form on Earth to a liquid form?
It could be frozen.
It cannot be turned from a solid to a liquid.
It could be melted.
It could be buried.
Explanation
Water can be changed from a solid to a liquid by melting it. Many times ponds or lakes are frozen in the winter when the temperature is low, the water is solid, and has turned to ice. In the spring, the temperatures start to rise in many places, and the frozen water melts back into its liquid state. Other places in the world may still be cold, and water remains froze. This is how solid and liquid water can exist at the same time in different areas.

Water only exists in solid states when it is warm.
True
False
Explanation
The statement is false; water can be found on Earth in solid AND liquid form. Water can be found on Earth in a solid form in cold areas as ice. Water can be found in a liquid form in places such as ponds, oceans, rivers, and more. When water is located in a solid-state, it would be in cold temperatures.
Water is found in many places on Earth. This photo is of a(n) __________.
river
ocean
glacier
groundwater
Explanation
This is a photo of a river. A river is a large stream of flowing water. Water can be found everywhere on Earth, though! Water can be found underground, in oceans, seas, ponds, lakes, glaciers, swamps, streams, our atmosphere, and more. This is just one location to find water on Earth.
