Many people get water from a source deep underground, called groundwater.

How do scientists measure how clear or murky water in a lake is? How does water clarity (clearness) affect what lives in the lake?

Glare from the sun and ripples from the wind can make it hard to see what's below the surface of a body of water.

In some parts of the world, lakes freeze during winter. In this activity learners will explore water’s unique properties of freezing and melting, and how these relate to density and temperature.

In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

This is a demonstration about how nature inspires nanotechnology. It is easily adapted into a hands-on activity for an individual or groups.

Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

Lakes, streams and other freshwater bodies are a habitat for lots of living things, big and small.

In this activity, learners will experiment with water- and air-filled balloons as a way of dampening sound before it reaches their ears.

In this activity, learners cut out and assemble wheels to explore how variations in fish body structures (mouth shape/position/teeth, body shape, tail shape, and coloration patterns) allow fish to sur

In this activity, learners examine the properties of different seaweeds, investigate what happens when powdered seaweed (alginate) is added to water, and learn about food products made with seaweed.

In this activity, learners make a model of a one-way heart valve to investigate how a heart controls the direction of blood flow.
