Drip Drop
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners explore how water drops behave on different surfaces.

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

Salting Out
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners create a mixture of water, alcohol and permanent marker ink, and then add salt to form a colored alcohol layer on top of a colorless water layer.

Can Nutrients in Water Cause Harm?
Source Institutions
In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.

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.

Exploring Forces: Gravity
Source Institutions
In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.

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.

Inner Space
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover that there is space between molecules even in a cup "full" of water. They first fill a cup with marbles, and then add sand to fill the gaps between the marbles.

Bend a Carrot
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners investigate the process of osmosis by adding salt to a sealed bag of raw carrots and comparing it to a control.

Deep Sea Diver
Source Institutions
In this ocean engineering activity, learners explore buoyancy and water displacement. Then, learners design models of deep sea divers that are neutrally buoyant.

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

Surface Area
Source Institutions
In this demonstration, learners discover that nanoparticles behave differently, in part because they have a high surface area to volume ratio.

Matter of Degree
Source Institutions
In two separate bags, learners mix water with Epsom salts and detergent.
