When my son was in first grade, he would come home after school, and then play “school” with my daughter. He would be the teacher, and his 3-year-old sister was his student. He actually taught her how to read that year!
An exchange of energy from high density to low. As vapor density increases, the exchange slows and even reverses, resulting in precipitation, relative to and dependent upon temperature. Evaporation may also occur from solid to gas, which is called sublimation, if the vapor density is low enough and the energy differential high enough.
“must be a charter or private one…”All of my kids and grandkids liked school when they were Pasquale’s age, and they were literate. They went to public schools. It was later that they became teenish and blasé.BTW, I read a review last night of a book whose author has a diametrically opposed view to yours. Would be interested in what you think of it: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/09/29/books/review/reign-of-error-by-diane-ravitch.html?_r=0
But just imagine the heating effect if there were sufficient water vapor density to deposit sufficient precipitation to maintain the glaciers or prevent the growth of deserts! It would render any amount of CO2 or CH4 we might pump into the atmosphere as entirely insignificant. Good thing we don’t need the fresh water created by global warming to live or anything.

Yes.

It’s winter. Make that sublimation!

wait till the snow melts and as the snowman melts, then explain evaporation to Pasquale…
