Water Cycle Diagram for Classrooms
Stable DiffusionWater Cycle Diagram for Classrooms is an SDXL 1.0 prompt for a teaching diagram at 4:5. Describing the arrows as one connected sequence is what closes the loop, and blank areas beside each arrow are left for real typeset labels.

Prompt
A clean flat-vector water cycle diagram, a coastal landscape cross-section with the sea on the left rising through hills to a mountain on the right, a connected loop of arrows in one single accent colour showing evaporation rising from the sea, condensation gathering into a cloud bank, precipitation falling on the high ground and runoff returning down a river to the sea, muted natural palette of teal, sand and sage, clean even outlines, a generous blank area of flat colour beside each arrow left free for labels, no text, no letters, no numbers
Negative prompt
blurry, low quality, photorealistic, 3d render, text, letters, numbers, cluttered detail, gradients, busy background, disconnected arrows, overlapping arrows

How to use this prompt
In a process diagram the arrows are the content, and SDXL treats them as decoration unless you describe them as a chain. Spelling the sequence out — sea, cloud, high ground, river, back to the sea — is what makes the loop actually close rather than producing four handsome arrows pointing nowhere in particular. Putting every arrow in one accent colour is the second move: it separates the mechanism from the scenery so a child can trace the path at a glance. Reserve flat blank areas beside each arrow and typeset the stage names yourself.
Variations to try
- Rework as a nitrogen cycle: soil, plants, animals and decomposers with the same arrow treatment
- Night-and-day split showing the same landscape twice to contrast evaporation and condensation
