In this physics activity (page 8 of the PDF), learners will explore the property of density.

In this activity (on page 2), learners create a submarine using a plastic cup. This is a fun way to learn about buoyancy and density.

On an airplane trip, learners have an opportunity to investigate the properties of air pressure at different altitudes.

In this activity (pages 17-31), learners are introduced to techniques that are used to determine the structures of solid materials.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty 2-liter bottles and hot tap water to illustrate the effect of heat on pressure.

In this activity, learners will create a drawing with dry erase markers and watch it come to life. Learners will explore chemistry, art and storytelling through this activity.

In this oceanography and data collection activity, learners cast real time sea state conditions using buoys from NOAA's National Data Buoy Center.

In this activity, learners calculate the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere by using steel wool's ability to rust.

Learners observe two joined glass tubes containing a conductive salt solution. Electrodes are passing an electric current through the water.

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

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this activity (pages 7-16), learners model various crystal structures with LEGOs. This activity also contains additional links that explain how to create other crystal structures.

In this physics activity, challenge learners to make and race a balloon-powered car. Learners construct the body out of a paper cup, wheels out of wooden spools. and fuel tank out of a balloon.

In this physics activity (page 2 of the PDF), learners will construct their own walkalong glider. They will explore how air, though invisible, surrounds and affects other objects.

In this optics activity, learners examine how a transparent material such as glass or water can actually reflect light better than any mirror.

This activity gets learners looking at 6-sided shapes in nature, including the cells of a beehive, as well as other shapes.

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

In this activity, learners experiment with the density of ice, water, and oil. Learners will discover that the density of a liquid determines whether it will float above or sink below another liquid.

In this activity, learners explore clouds and how they form.

In this engineering design challenge, learners make a bubble maze that allows bubbles to move through a series of “on” and “off” switches.
