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 are introduced to robotic submarines called gliders. Learners make “gliders” from plastic syringes and compare these to Cartesian bottles and plastic bubbles.

In this activity learners explore surface tension. Why are certain objects able to float on the surface of water and how do detergents break the surface tension of water?

In this outdoor activity, learners simulate an oil spill using popcorn (both oil and popcorn float on water), and estimate the spill's impact on the environment.

In this activity, learners identify different plastics in a mystery bag. Learners discover that plastics are classified #1 through #7.

In this activity, learners will explore how a hydrometer works by building a working model and conducting experiments.

In this activity, learners build a hovercraft using a paper plate, cup, and simple motor.
