In this activity (located on page 9 of the PDF), learners are introduced to Aesop's fable, "The Crow and the Pitcher." In the story, a clever crow drops pebbles into a pitcher to cause the water level

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

In this quick activity, learners drink Avogadro's number worth of molecules - 6.02x10^23 molecules!

In this experiment, learners examine how pressure affects water flow. In small groups, learners work with water and a soda bottle, and then relate their findings to pressure in the deep ocean.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under Water Clean-up Activity) about the use of reduction agents to decontaminate ground water.

This activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Water Slides) is a full inquiry investigation into speed and motion and takes place at a water park.

In this activity, learners observe the effect of transpiration as water is moved from the ground to the atmosphere.

In this activity, learners discover that they can create a lens from a water drop. Learners test their lens by looking at words or pictures.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.

In this activity (located on page 10 of the PDF), learners explore the properties of spraying and dripping water, while making art.

This is an activity/demo in which learners are exposed to the difference bewteen hydrophobic surfaces (water repelling) and hydrophilic surfaces (water loving).

This is an online activity about acceleration. Learners will choose a speed and an angle in order to help a water-skier named Fonzie use a ramp to clear a shark.

In this activity/demonstration, learners observe what happens when two ping pong balls are suspended in the air by a hair dryer. Use this activity to demonstrate how rain drops grow by coalescence.

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

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.

As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

Learners design their own experiment to determine which M&M color dissolves the fastest in water.

In this activity, challenge learners to predict and investigate how many water drops they can fit on one penny.

In this experiment, pairs of learners explore how cold water affects circulation. The mammalian diving reflex (MDR) slows circulation when the body is exposed to cold water.

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.
