Water cycle notes - Year 7 Geography
The water cycle is the continuous movement of water between the sea, the air and the land.
The Sun's heat powers the whole cycle.
Evaporation: heat turns liquid water into water vapour, a gas. Most evaporation happens over the oceans.
Transpiration: plants release water vapour from their leaves.
Condensation: as vapour rises it cools and turns back into tiny liquid droplets, which form clouds.
Precipitation: when droplets in clouds grow heavy they fall as rain, snow, sleet or hail.
Collection: water gathers in oceans, lakes, rivers and underground.
Runoff: water that flows over the land surface into rivers and streams.
Infiltration: water soaking down into the soil.
Groundwater: water stored in soil and rock underground. The top of it is called the water table.
An aquifer is a layer of rock that holds groundwater.
About 97% of Earth's water is salt water in the oceans.
Only about 3% is fresh water, and most of that is frozen in ice caps and glaciers.
Sublimation: ice turning straight into vapour without becoming liquid first.
Class experiment: we covered a bowl of warm water with cling film and put ice on top.
Droplets formed on the underside of the film. This showed condensation.
Mr Okafor said a cloud is made of tiny droplets, not of vapour.
Key terms to learn: evaporation, condensation, precipitation, collection.
The water cycle has no start or end point.
Rivers flow downhill towards the sea because of gravity.
Deserts get little precipitation, less than 250 mm per year.
Rainforests get lots of precipitation and have high transpiration.
Homework: draw and label the cycle with arrows.
Test on Friday.

## Quiz (6 questions)
1. What happens to water vapour as it rises?
2. What is a cloud made of, according to Mr Okafor?
3. Why do rivers flow downhill towards the sea?
4. In the class experiment, what did the droplets under the cling film show?
5. What percentage of Earth's water is salt water in the oceans?
6. How much precipitation do deserts get per year?

## Answers
1. It cools and turns back into tiny liquid droplets, forming clouds. (line 6)
2. Tiny droplets, not vapour. (line 18)
3. Because of gravity. (line 21)
4. Condensation. (lines 16-17)
5. About 97%. (line 13)
6. Less than 250 mm per year. (line 22)

## Gaps to ask your teacher
- Line 20 says the cycle has no start or end point; the notes do not explain why.
- The notes list "collection" as a key term but give no examples beyond line 8.

description: Turns a student's own study notes into 12 flashcards and a 6-question quiz with answers, all answerable from the notes alone. Use when someone pastes or attaches class notes and wants to revise for a test. Marks gaps in the notes instead of filling them from outside knowledge.

# Study Coach
Your notes in, 12 flashcards and a 6-question quiz out, every answer traceable to a line.

## When to use
- A student has notes on one topic and wants revision material.
- A parent or tutor wants practice questions based on what the class actually covered.

## Inputs
- The notes as a text or Markdown file. Ask for them if only a topic name is given.
- Optional: test date, level, and terms the student finds hard.

## Steps
1. Read the notes and number each line (keep a private map of line numbers).
2. List the facts that are stated clearly: definitions, numbers, examples, cause and effect.
3. Pick 12 distinct facts for flashcards. Spread them across the notes and cover every "key terms" line the notes list.
4. Write each card as a short question or term on the front and a one-sentence answer on the back, using the notes' wording.
5. Pick 6 different facts for the quiz. Mix types: two recall, two "why/how", one number, one experiment or example if the notes contain one.
6. Write each question so one short answer is correct. Add the answer and the source line number.
7. Check every card and question: if the answer is not in the notes, replace it. Count 12 cards and 6 questions.
8. List topics the notes mention but do not explain, as "Gaps to ask your teacher".

## Output
Write a new file `study-pack.md` next to the notes (if it exists, use `study-pack-2.md`). Never overwrite the notes. Template:

## Rules
- Never invent facts, numbers or definitions; use only what the notes say.
- Do not add outside knowledge, even if the notes look wrong; flag the line as "check with your teacher".
- Every answer cites its note line number.
- Do not repeat the same fact across cards and quiz questions.
- Write results to a new file, never overwrite the user's files.
- Keep the notes local; do not send them anywhere.
- Out of scope: grading, medical, legal or financial advice.
