Clean Water: Is It Drinkable?
Source Institutions
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.
Drip Drop
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

Water Exploration Station
Source Institutions
In this activity (located on page 3 of the PDF), learners investigate the way water moves and how we can control and direct water.

From Here to There
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.

Sink or Float?
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.
Float or Sink?
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners test which objects float and which sink. Learners discover that objects behave differently in water.

What's So Special about Water: Solubility and Density
Source Institutions
In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

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

Lighting Up Celery Stalks
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners conduct a series of hands-on experiments that demonstrate how the working of plants' veins, known as capillary action, enables water to travel throughout the length of a pla

Forces at the Nanoscale: Nano Properties of Everyday Plants
Source Institutions
This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

Collect Invertebrates to Determine Water Quality
Source Institutions
This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Alligator Habitat Activity) is a full inquiry investigation into organisms and the health of their ecosystems.

Boats Afloat
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.
Buoyancy Bulls-Eye
Source Institutions
In this hands-on activity, learners will construct a scuba diver that can float in order to explore how sea creatures stay neutrally buoyant in the ocean and to see what kinds of forces might be influ

Sink It
Source Institutions
Learners classify a variety of objects by their characteristics. They then design an experiment to determine which objects float or sink in water and add this characteristic to their classification.

Invent on the Spot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners design a device to solve a problem: how to get a ball out of a drain pipe.

Heating and Cooling of the Earth's Surface
Source Institutions
Learners conduct an experiment to determine the rate at which two materials, sand and water, heat up and cool down.

Bone Basics
Source Institutions
This is an activity (on page 2 of the PDF under Bone Regrowth Activity) about the two main components of bone - collagen and minerals (like calcium) - and how they each contribute to its flexibility a

Excavating and Mapping Under Water
Source Institutions
In this archaeology activity, learners consider ways in which excavating an underwater site is different from excavating a terrestrial site.

Biochemistry Happens Inside of You!
Source Institutions
In this four-part activity, learners explore how the body works and the chemistry that happens inside living things.
