Physics in the Sky: Physics on a Plane
Source Institutions
On an airplane trip, learners have an opportunity to investigate the properties of air pressure at different altitudes.
The Carbon Cycle and its Role in Climate Change: Activity 2
Source Institutions
In this activity (on page 7), learners explore the meaning of a "carbon sink." Using simple props, learners and/or an educator demonstrate how plants act as carbon sinks and how greenhouse gases cause
The Daily Ups and Downs

In this activity, learners graph 48 hourly air temperatures from a local weather observation site and observe the diurnal temperature variations.
Can Crushers
Source Institutions

Drawing Conclusions
Source Institutions
In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.
The Search for Secret Agents
Learners tour their school or home looking for sources of indoor air pollutants (IAPs).
What-a-cycle
Source Institutions
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.
Water, Water Everywhere
Source Institutions
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
