In this activity, learners will create a diagram of the ocean zones and determine what organisms live in each zone.

In this activity, learners build a miniature wind tunnel to measure force. Learners construct the model out of Lexan plastic, a fan, and a precise digital scale.

Learners observe and discuss a simple model of a wet scrubber, a device for cleaning industrial air pollution.

Based of the The Tech Challenge 2015, learners will engage in two mini-design challenges related to seismic engineering.

Learners observe a simple balloon model of an electrostatic precipitator. These devices are used for pollutant recovery in cleaning industrial air pollution.

Learners take on the role of environmental engineers as they design water filters.

In this indoor and/or outdoor activity, learners make an anemometer (an instrument to measure wind speed) out of a protractor, a ping pong ball and a length of thread or fishing line.

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

Learners observe and discuss a vacuum cleaner as a model of a baghouse, a device used in cleaning industrial air pollution.

In this activity, learners will test cups full of potting soil, sand, and sphagnum moss to see which earth material is able to soak up the most water.

In this activity, learners explore the engineering behind seismographs and how technology has improved accurate recording of earthquakes.

In this experiment, learners design and build a model room in a shoebox and furnish it with tiny furniture.

In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Bogs), learners will test cups full of potting soil, sand, and sphagnum moss to see which earth material is able to soak up the most water.

Water treatment on a large scale enables the supply of clean drinking water to communities.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from
