In this activity, learners discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.

Learners use beach profile data from a local beach or online data from Ocean City, Maryland to investigate coastal erosion and sediment transport.

In this activity, learners simulate nature's water filtration system by devising a system that will filter out both visible and invisible pollutants from water.

In this activity, learners explore how acids can dissolve eggshells leaving behind a membrane-covered bouncy egg.

In this activity, learners eat a snack and make a model of the plumbing system of a volcano.

In this activity, learners explore the human influences on the carbon cycle and examine how fossil fuels release carbon.

In this classic hands-on activity, learners estimate the length of a molecule by floating a fatty acid (oleic acid) on water.

In this group activity, learners use some common objects and work together to simulate the Coriolis effect. During the challenge, learners make predictions and test different scenarios.

Through doing these hands-on activities, learners explore the environmental consequences associated with fossil fuel usage.

Ocean acidification is a big issue due to the amount of carbon dioxide humans release. CO2 in the atmosphere is absorbed into the ocean thus changing its acidity.

In this creative roleplay activity, learners will explore the various processes of the water cycle using movement, sound, and props to aid in comprehension.

In this four-part activity, learners will discover the exciting world of light--the most important form of energy in our world--and be able to identify and describe different types of light.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate organisms that live along the ocean's rocky coast.

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 group activity, learners act out key stages of the "ocean carbon cycle" (also known as the "carbonate buffer system") through motions, rearranging blocks and team tasks.

In this activity, learners make a barometer, an instrument to measure change in air pressure.

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 calculate the percentage of oxygen in the atmosphere by using steel wool's ability to rust.

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