In this activity, learners investigate and compare the rate of drying in different conditions.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to explore how water flows up from a tree's roots to its leafy crown.

In this activity on page 4 of the PDF (Water in Our World), learners conduct some quick and easy tests to determine the differences between water and other liquids that look very similar to water.

In this chemistry activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will learn about crystals by growing their very own.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

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

In this activity on page 6 of the PDF, learners dissolve Epsom salt in water and discover that the resulting solution can be used to create a work of art.

In this activity, learners explore properties of water and watch evaporation happen by "painting" with water in the sun.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

In this activity, learners try to revive wilted celery. Learners discover that plants wilt when their cells lose water through evaporation. Use this activity to introduce capillary action.
