In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

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

In this activity learners will explore how water moves on waxed paper. Learners will use science process skills such as using tools and making observations as they explore surface tension.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.

Learners mix liquid water with solid cornstarch. They investigate the slime produced, which has properties of both a solid and a liquid.

In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.

Learners are challenged to discover the relative densities of colored liquids to create a rainbow pattern in a test tube.

In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this chemistry challenge, learners identify which plants have the enzyme "catalase" that breaks hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen.

In this activity, learners will use chemistry to create a night sky watercolor painting. They will experiment to learn the effects of mixing crayon, salt, and lemon juice with water color paints.

In this physics activity, learners experiment with the attractive and repulsive power of magnets.

In this activity, learners try pouring water out of a regular cup and a miniature cup. It’s harder than it sounds! Learners discover that different forces dominate at different size scales.

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.

This is written as a display, but can easily be adapted to a hands-on activity. Learners observe and shake containers of shiny liquids.

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