Learners see that a carrot slice sinks in fresh water and floats in saltwater.

In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "nano sand" and regular sand.

Learners observe a bottle containing water and oil. They are invited to pick up the bottle and mix the contents together.

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

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.

This hands-on experiment will provide learners with an understanding of the issues that surround environmental cleanup.

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

In this activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners explore surface tension by adding pennies to cups which are "full" of plain water or soapy water.

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Nasturtium Leaves Activity) about surface tension.
