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

Learners take a field trip along a local body of water and conduct a visual survey to discover information about local land use and water quality.

In this activity, learners will test cups full of potting soil, sand, and sphagnum moss to see which earth material is able to soak up the most water.

April showers bring May flowers, but what do coastal storms bring?

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

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

In this activity, learners use rice grains to model the composition of the atmosphere of the Earth today and in 1880. Learners assemble the model while measuring percentages.

In this activity, learners construct hand-held altitude trackers. The device is a sighting tube with a marked water level that permits measurement of the inclination of the tube.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

In this environmental health activity, learners investigate their own vital lung capacities.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Garbology Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into design optimization using recycled materials.

In this activity, learners explore sensors and focus specifically on how to measure humidity using a sensor.

In this activity, learners explore how engineers have met the challenge of keeping foods, liquids, and other items cool.

This lesson focuses on how materials behave differently as their surface area increases.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.
