Ratings for Standards - Houghton Mifflin:
3 Water on Earth moves between the oceans and land through the processes of evaporation and condensation. Moderate   
3a Students know most of Earth's water is present as salt water in the oceans, which cover most of Earth's surface. In-Depth   
3b Students know when liquid water evaporates, it turns into water vapor in the air and can reappear as a liquid when cooled or as a solid if cooled below the freezing point of water. Moderate   
3c Students know water vapor in the air moves from one place to another and can form fog or clouds, which are tiny droplets of water or ice, and can fall to Earth as rain, hail, sleet, or snow. In-Depth   
3d Students know that the amount of fresh water located in rivers, lakes, under-ground sources, and glaciers is limited and that its availability can be extended by recycling and decreasing the use of water. In-Depth   
3e Students know the origin of the water used by their local communities. Moderate
