In this activity, learners are introduced to robotic submarines called gliders. Learners make “gliders” from plastic syringes and compare these to Cartesian bottles and plastic bubbles.

In this activity, learners are challenged to design a planktonic organism that will neither float like a cork nor sink like a stone.

In this activity, learners model hot spot island formation, orientation and progression with condiments.

In this activity, learners will create their own coral polyps - the basis for a coral reef.

In this activity, groups of learners work together to create edible models of chemicals involved in autotrophic nutrition.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

In this 6-7 day investigation, learners begin with an introduction to seamounts that are present in the Gulf of Alaska.

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.

Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.

In this activity, learners interact with a 3-D model of a watershed to better understand the interconnectedness of terrestrial and aquatic environments.

Educator Amy O'Donnell from the American Museum of Natural History guides learners to create a diorama of a coral reef.

In this activity, learners will explore how density is affected by temperature and how that can create currents.

In this activity about camouflage, learners create a model that shows how a flounder is able to blend into a variety of environments.
