In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

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

In this activity, learners will simulate the processes of the water cycle at home in a plastic sandwich bag.

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.

This activity (located on page 8 of the PDF) introduces learners to the concept of Non-point Source Pollution--what happens when rain washes garbage and other pollutants into rivers and lakes.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

Why is ocean water sometimes the warmest when the average daily air temperature starts to drop? In this activity, learners explore the differing heat capacities of water and air using real data.

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.

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

In this creative roleplay activity, learners will explore the various processes of the water cycle using movement, sound, and props to aid in comprehension.

In this activity, learners visualize the differences in water density and relate this to the potential consequences of increased glacial melting.

In this activity, learners thread colored beads onto string. Each beach represent a process of the water cycle.

Learners work in teams to design and build solar water heating devices that mimic those used in residences to capture energy in the form of solar radiation and convert it to thermal energy.

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 this activity, learners will explore the water cycle by creating a small atmosphere.

In this activity, learners working in pairs saturate a cotton ball using water drops from an eyedropper to demonstrate the high water capacity of clouds.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

In this activity, learners observe the water cycle in action! Water vapor in a tumbler condenses on chilled aluminum foil — producing the liquid form of water familiar to us as rain and dew.

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

In this quick activity, learners observe how the added sugar in a can of soda affects its density and thus, its ability to float in water.
