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

In this environmental education demonstration (page 6 of the PDF), learners will see a tangible representation of the scarcity of soil resources on earth.

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

In this activity, learners discover if carbon dioxide has an effect on temperature.

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty 2-liter bottles and hot tap water to illustrate the effect of heat on pressure.

This creative lesson plan provides a visual way for learners to gain knowledge about the finite amount of fresh water on Earth and encourages the discussion of the various ways to conserve this resour

In this activity, learners explore the concept of permeability to better understand why amphibians are extremely sensitive to pollution.

In this activity, learners will discover what it takes to be a frog. By dressing up like one, learners can visualize how each part of the frog plays an important role in surviving its habitat.

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

In this activity, learners visualize the differences in water density and relate this to the potential consequences of increased glacial melting.

This activity generates learner excitement about light through the creation of a room-sized rainbow.

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 explore how light and dark colored objects absorb the Sun's radiations at different rates.

In this activity, learners discover how landfills affect the natural environment.

In this activity, learners make a model of the hot water of a deep sea vent in the cold water of the ocean to learn about one of the ocean's most amazing and bizarre underwater habitats.

In this activity, learners use chocolate to explore how the Sun transfers heat to the Earth through radiation.

Build a fruit fly trap out of a 2-liter plastic bottle and some rotten fruit! Fruit flies are easy to catch in warm weather. Once you catch some, you will be able to see their life cycle up-close.

In this activity, learners create a "mini sky" in a glass of water in a dark room.
