In this kinesthetic activity that demonstrates pressure, learners act as air molecules in a "container" as defined by a rope.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

In this activity, learners investigate and compare the rate of drying in different conditions.

In this activity on page 24, learners perform experiments to examine whether or not trash can float, blow around, or wash away.

In this activity, learners experiment with creating various types of bubble solutions and testing which ingredients form longer-lasting bubbles.

In this demonstration, learners compare the relative sizes and masses of scale models of the planets as represented by fruits and other foods.
