Start with the next useful question. These ten lessons need not be one uninterrupted block. Keep a small response, then use its next-help idea.

- [Day 31 · Find a water place](../lessons/day-31.html) — Name a store/source of water and distinguish a place from a process.

- [Day 32 · A puddle gets smaller](../lessons/day-32.html) — Explain evaporation as liquid water becoming invisible water vapour; distinguish explanation from observation.

- [Day 33 · Drops on the outside](../lessons/day-33.html) — Explain condensation as vapour becoming liquid droplets and use a comparison clue carefully.

- [Day 34 · Give the arrow a job](../lessons/day-34.html) — Identify precipitation and connect the three key processes through sky, landscape and ocean without a fixed-clock claim.

- [Day 35 · Try a fresh water story](../lessons/day-35.html) — Apply taught water-process meanings to fresh A/B sources and choose the next teaching need.

- [Day 36 · What would make the comparison fair?](../lessons/day-36.html) — Plan a scaffolded comparison, make an observation-based prediction and learn familiar volume/duration scale procedures.

- [Day 37 · Keep zero, missing and spill separate](../lessons/day-37.html) — Organise supplied observations in a table/column graph, interpret zero/missing/invalid correctly and limit a conclusion.

- [Day 38 · Follow a public water-supply clue](../lessons/day-38.html) — Use a dated public source for a bounded local example and separate natural cycle from human water supply.

- [Day 39 · Make a water trail worth using](../lessons/day-39.html) — Create and review a useful audience-specific explanation, using water science accurately and identifying model limits.

- [Day 40 · What is clearer now?](../lessons/day-40.html) — Use later fresh forms only after relevant teaching and make an evidence-based next teaching plan.

## Select a new story

A and B after Day 34; C after Day 37; D after Day 39. Later forms follow relevant teaching on Day 40. A full bank exposes all held stories; give the child just the selected source and own page. Record prior exposure/support; familiar process words and representations remain familiar. First/later forms are not statistically calibrated.
