In this activity (located on page 6 of the PDF), learners explore the ways people access water in their homes.

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

This activity provides instructions for using cornstarch and water to make an ooze which has the properties of both a solid and liquid.

In this activity, learners will make fish cutouts that propel through the water with the help of surface tension.

In this physics activity, learners will explore buoyancy.

Learners discover that soap can be used to power a boat. Learners make a simple, flat boat model, put it in water, and then add a drop of detergent at the back of the boat.

This is an activity/demo in which learners are exposed to the difference bewteen hydrophobic surfaces (water repelling) and hydrophilic surfaces (water loving).

In this activity about water solubility and density, learners use critical thinking skills to determine why water can dissolve some things and not others.

In this three-part activity, learners play a game and conduct two simple experiments to explore water and surface tension. Learners will have fun discovering how water "sticks" together.

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

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

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 use objects they find on a nature and water to make creative frozen sculptures.

Learners see that a can of regular cola sinks while a can of diet cola floats. As a demonstration, bubble wrap is taped to the can of regular cola to make it float.
