In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

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 (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

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

In this math lesson (page 2 of the PDF), learners use bottles of various shapes to explore the abstract concept of rate of change.

Design a vessel that tests the limits of wind power given a set of off the shelf and recycled materials.

In this activity, learners will use static elecricity to bend a stream of water without touching it. Learners will explore physics and cause and effect through this activity.

No glue is needed for learners of any age to become marshmallow architects or engineers.

In this math lesson, learners predict, interpret, and sketch graphs of functions related to the shapes of bottles. A measure of water is poured into a container.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to help Pharaoh design a better insulated tomb.

Learners compare the properties and solubilities of Styrofoam (TM), ecofoam packing peanuts, and popcorn. First, the solubility of each substance is tested in water.

Learners discover that their breath contains carbon dioxide, one of the pollutants found in car exhaust.

In this math lesson, learners design an experiment to model a leaky faucet and determine the amount of water wasted due to the leak.

Learners make their own paper using old newspaper. Learners can make their paper colorful by adding construction paper.

In this activity, learners use tinfoil to build and test their own boats - which designs will float, and which will sink?

In this activity, learners light an LED with five cents. Learners use two different metals and some sour, salty water to create a cheap battery.

Learners will explore the scientific mystery behind a disappearing group of trees by examining data and attempting to explain the decline.

Learners explore soybeans, soak them in water to remove their coat, and then split them open to look inside. They also make a musical shaker out of paper cups, a cardboard tube, and soybeans.

In this math lesson, learners learn how to construct stem and leaf plots. Learners first estimate the number of drops of water that will fit on the head of a penny.
