In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will explore how energy from moving water can be used.

In this activity, learners explore how engineering has developed various means to remove impurities from water.

In this activity, learners use the design thinking process to design and build their own aqueduct, or water bridge.

Learners see convection currents in action in this highly visual demonstration. Sealed bags of colored hot or cold water are immersed in tanks of water.

In this activity, learners discover the difficulty of ocean exploration by human beings as they investigate water pressure.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

This is an activity/demo in which learners are exposed to the difference bewteen hydrophobic surfaces (water repelling) and hydrophilic surfaces (water loving).

In this quick activity (located on page 2 of the PDF under GPS: Balloon Fiesta Activity), learners will see the effects of convection and understand what makes hot air balloons rise.

In a class demonstration, learners observe a simple water cycle model to better understand its role in pollutant transport.

Learners use a commercially available toy to experiment with density. They fill a chamber in the toy submarine with baking powder and release it into a tank of water.

In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "nano sand" and regular sand.

In this activity (on pages 4-5), learners make fake snow by adding water to the super-absorbant chemical from diapers, sodium polyacrylate.

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

In this demonstration, learners observe vinegar and baking soda reacting to form carbon dioxide (CO2) gas.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

In this activity, learners create a colorful bookmark using a super thin layer of nail polish on water. Learners discover that a thin film creates iridescent, rainbow colors.

This is written as a display, but can easily be adapted to a hands-on activity. Learners discover how all the parts of a diaper work together to keep babies dry and comfortable.

In this activity, learners design a device to solve a problem: how to get a ball out of a drain pipe.
