In this activity on page 7 of the PDF (Water in Our World), learners make their own water treatment systems for cleaning water.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers work to solve the challenges of a society, such as delivering safe drinking water.

In this activity, learners explore why frost forms. They create their own frost using a solution of ice water and salt in a glass.

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 compare water pressure at different depths. Learners discover that water pressure increases with depth.

In this activity, learners discover that as the salinity of water increases, the density increases as well. Learners prove this by attempting to float fresh eggs in saltwater and freshwater.

In an investigation called "Shape It!" learners craft tiny boats out of clay, set them afloat on water and then add weight loads to them, in order to explore: how objects stay afloat in water; what th

In this activity (page 1 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Water Slides), learners will whip up some suds with a cup of water and a tablespoon of dish soap until the bubbles are stiff enough to star

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

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.

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.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Water Clean-up Activity) about the use of reduction agents to decontaminate ground water.

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

Learners act as engineers and design mini submarines that move in the water like real submarines.

In this activity, learners use sieves with different-sized holes to sort balls by size.

This activity explores the basic workings of a siphon, which is the core technology that makes toilets work.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Water Slides) is a full inquiry investigation into speed and motion and takes place at a water park.

In this activity, learners build water-propelled engines from soft drink cans.

In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.
