Water, Water Everywhere
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners estimate how much water they think can be found in various locations on the Earth in all its states (solid, liquid, and gas) to discover the different water ratios in the Ea

Home Water Audit
Source Institutions
This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

What-a-cycle
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners act as water molecules and travel through parts of the water cycle to discover that it is more complex than just water moving from the ground to the atmosphere.

Conductivity: Salty Water
Source Institutions
Water, whether fresh or salty, serves as one of the best electrical conductors on the planet. Does salt effect its conductivity?

Shower Estimation
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners calculate their water usage (in cups and galloons) during an average shower. Learners also chart and analyze water usage during showers in their households.

Twist and Spout
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make their own "tornado" using two soda bottles and water.

Anti-Gravity Cups
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will use simple materials to explore centripetal force and variables by swinging a cup of water without having the water spill out.

Atmospheric Collisions
Source Institutions
In this activity/demonstration, learners observe what happens when two ping pong balls are suspended in the air by a hair dryer. Use this activity to demonstrate how rain drops grow by coalescence.

Build A Bee Bath
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

The Best Dam Simulation Ever
Source Institutions
This online simulation game explores the different consequences of water levels on the Columbia River in the Pacific Northwest.

A Pressing Engagement
Source Institutions
In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners illustrate the effect of the weight of air over our heads.

Crunch Time
Source Institutions
In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty 2-liter bottles and hot tap water to illustrate the effect of heat on pressure.

Chemical Footprint—Family Activity
Source Institutions
In this multi-part activity learners examine non-point water pollution.

The Dead Zone: A Marine Horror Story
Source Institutions
In this environmental science and data analysis activity, learners work in groups to track a Dead Zone (decreased dissolved oxygen content of a body of water) using water quality data from the Nutrien

A Cubic Foot Per Second
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners measure and calculate the amount of cubic feet various containers contain. Next, learners investigate cubic feet per second (cps), by carrying jugs in one second.
Soil Secrets
Source Institutions
In this activity (located at the bottom of the page), learners investigate soil and explore the creatures that live in it.

Mass of the Earth
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use basic measurements of the Earth and pieces of rock and iron to estimate the mass of the Earth.

Sustainable Grazing
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the food, water, and space needs of common livestock animals.
Fish Eyes: More than Meets the Eye
Source Institutions
In this data collection and analysis activity, learners evaluate fish physiology and ecology using vision research data from Dr.

Arctic Sea Ice
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how the area of Arctic sea ice has changed over recent years. First, learners graph the area of Arctic sea ice over time from 1979 to 2007.
