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

In this astrobiology activity (on page 11 of the PDF), learners consider what organisms need in order to live (water, nutrients, and energy).

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment by heating an aluminum can filled with water to investigate air pressure.

In this quick activity, learners observe how salinity and temperature affect the density of water, to better understand the Great Ocean Conveyor.

In this outdoor activity, learners simulate an oil spill using popcorn (both oil and popcorn float on water), and estimate the spill's impact on the environment.

In this quick activity about the properties of water (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Malformed Frogs), learners will use an eyedropper to slowly place one drop of water at a time onto a penny,

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

In this activity, learners see how many coins they can add to a full glass of water before the water overflows.

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

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 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 are challenged to lift a floating ice cube out of a glass of water using just one end of a piece of string.

In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.

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 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.

In this activity, challenge learners to predict and investigate how many water drops they can fit on one penny.

In this weather activity (page 4 of the PDF), learners will explore the water cycle through an interactive game.

As a group, learners consider sources of water pollution to understand where pollution starts and where it ends up.

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