Water is found in oceans, lakes, rivers, streams, and ponds. Oceans contain about 97% of the world's water and cover 71% of the Earth's surface. Lakes are bodies of water surrounded by land that can vary in size. Rivers are large streams that flow over land and help shape it. Streams are smaller bodies of water that flow between banks. Ponds are small areas of still, fresh water.

15. Ponds
A pond is a small area of still, fresh
water.
It is different from a river and a
stream because it does not have
moving water.
It is different from a lake because it
has a small area and is not as deep.

17. Bonus!
Glaciers are another place where
water is located!
Glaciers are huge masses of ice that
covers a large area of land.
They form over hundreds of years
where fallen snow compresses and
turns into ice.
Glaciers can be found in places such
as Antarctica, Alaska, and Canada.
