In this activity, learners explore the relative size of the Sun and Earth as well as the distance between them.

In this hands-on and feet-on excursion, learners take a science walk to visualize the planet's immense size and numerous structures, without the usual scale and ratio dimensions found in most textbook

In this activity, learners explore the relative sizes and distances of objects in the solar system.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this activity, learners make scale models of the Sun and Earth out of paper mache.

In this oceanography and data collection activity, learners cast real time sea state conditions using buoys from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center.

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.

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

Water on Earth is in lakes, the ocean, rivers, underground, and frozen glaciers.

In this activity, learners explore how distance can affect the way we perceive the size of an object.

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

In this activity, learners make a model of a pollution spill that occurred at Bangs Lake in Mississippi and measure water quality parameters in their model.

This game introduces learners to the scale of the greenhouse gas problem, plus technologies that already exist to dramatically reduce our carbon emissions and prevent climate change.
