In this outdoor water activity, learners explore evaporation by painting with water and tracing puddles. Learners will discover that wet things become dry as the water evaporates.

In this activity (located on page 3 of the PDF), learners investigate the way water moves and how we can control and direct water.

In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.

In this indoor or outdoor water activity, learners pour water from small cups to large cups and containers. In doing so, they discover water takes the shape of its container.

This warm weather activity introduces learners to the impact trees have on blocking the sun's heat and reducing temperature on the Earth's surface.

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

In this outdoor water activity, learners explore how to change the direction of water flow. Learners make puddles in dirt or use existing puddles and sticks to make water flow.

In this activity, learners investigate how different materials repel or absorb water. Learners use spray bottles to explore how everyday items like sponges, cardboard, feathers, etc.

In this activity, learners work in groups to build simple solar stills filled with salt water. After the stills are complete, learners observe what happens when they place the stills in the sun.

In this activity, learners capture and observe planaria, which are worms that eat tiny pond critters.

In this activity, learners model atmospheric convection currents using food coloring, water, and clear cups. Activity includes step-by-step instructions, STEM connections, and more.

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

In this activity, learners explore and compare the buoyant properties of materials found in nature and in human-made materials.

In this activity, learners will test soil content using their sample, some water and a container that seals.

In this activity (located at the bottom of the page), learners investigate soil and explore the creatures that live in it.

In this activity, learners make pykrete by freezing a mixture of water and a material like cotton wool, grass, hair, shredded paper, wood chips, or sawdust.

In this activity, learners observe tide pool animals in a touch tank to consider how they survive.

In this activity (located at the top of the page), learners make an easy river strainer and see what they can catch.

In this outdoor activity, learners explore UV rays from the Sun and ways to protect against these potentially harmful rays.
