In this multi-part activity learners examine non-point water pollution.

In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

Some aquatic organisms live in open water, while some live in soil at the bottom of a body of water.

In this biology activity (page 3 of the PDF), learners will explore how plants turn sunlight into food through a process called photosynthesis.

In this activity, learners use simple materials to create giant bubbles.

In this activity, learners explore how salt water freezes in comparison to fresh water.

Many people get water from a source deep underground, called groundwater.

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

In this investigation, learners plant seeds in a 2-liter bottle filled with soil that is connected to a water source below. Over the next few weeks, learners observe how the plants grow.

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

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.

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, learners use found natural materials to create a water haven for bees and other insects.

Glare from the sun and ripples from the wind can make it hard to see what's below the surface of a body of water.

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 explore healthy choices related to the liquids they drink. The importance of water and milk as essential nutrients for a healthy body is the focus of the experience.

In this activity, learners create a biosphere in a baggie.
