In this activity, learners calculate their water usage (in cups and galloons) during an average shower. Learners also chart and analyze water usage during showers in their households.

In this activity, learners will explore the water cycle by creating a small atmosphere.

In this activity, learners observe how salinity affects the freezing point of water by making and enjoying ice cream.

In this quick activity, learners observe how salinity and temperature affect the density of water, to better understand the Great Ocean Conveyor.

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

In this activity, learners see how many coins they can add to a full glass of water before the water overflows.

This activity (located on page 8 of the PDF) introduces learners to the concept of Non-point Source Pollution--what happens when rain washes garbage and other pollutants into rivers and lakes.

In this activity, learners are challenged to lift a floating ice cube out of a glass of water using just one end of a piece of string.

This activity offers learners and their families several ways to raise their awareness together about home water.

In this simulation activity, learners observe what can happen when ocean waves churn up water and oil from an oil spill.

In this activity, challenge learners to predict and investigate how many water drops they can fit on one penny.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners explore an aquatic site such as a pond, lake, stream, river or seashore to find and investigate plants and animals that live in water.

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

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

In this activity, learners act as water molecules and travel through parts of the water cycle to discover that it is more complex than just water moving from the ground to the atmosphere.

In this activity, learners consider the water features they might enjoy at a community park--a pond, brook, water playground (or "sprayground"), or pool--and what happens to the water over time.

In this activity, learners estimate how much water they think can be found in various locations on the Earth in all its states (solid, liquid, and gas) to discover the different water ratios in the Ea

This is an activity about turbidity, or the amount of sediment suspended in water.

In this activity, learners explore in what ways the shape of the land and the pull of gravity influence how water moves over Earth.
