Strengths
- Identifies the sun's role.
- Mentions evaporation and precipitation.
To Improve
- Needs to more accurately describe evaporation and condensation.
- Should explain the different states of water (gas, liquid, solid).
- Could use more scientific vocabulary (e.g., 'condensation' instead of 'gets cold').
