In this activity, learners discuss the different salinities of oceans, rivers and estuaries.

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 are challenged to design a planktonic organism that will neither float like a cork nor sink like a stone.

In this activity, learners model hot spot island formation, orientation and progression with condiments.

This activity provides a hands-on experience with a scale model, a relatively high viscosity fluid, and feeding behaviors.

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.

In this edible experiment, learners pour "Magic Shell" chocolate into a glass of cold water. They'll observe as pillow shaped structures form, which resemble lavas on the sea floor.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

In this earth science activity (page 14 of the PDF), learners use layers of closed-cell foam to create their own model of the mid-ocean ridge in order to simulate seafloor spreading.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate the special shapes, holding structures and holding behaviors that real organisms use in streams, rivers, creeks or coast intertidal zones to a

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this activity, learners interact with a 3-D model of a watershed to better understand the interconnectedness of terrestrial and aquatic environments.

Where rainwater goes after the rain stops? And why there are rivers and lakes in some parts of the land but not in others?

Water on Earth is in lakes, the ocean, rivers, underground, and frozen glaciers.

In this activity, learners explore a bucket of sand and beach objects.
