Learners will build and experiment with their own windmills made from simple household materials.

In this weather activity/demonstration, learners watch as a ping pong ball is suspended in a stream of air supplied by a hair dryer.

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 weather forecasting activity, learners use common materials to construct a rain gauge and measure daily, monthly, and yearly rainfall.

In this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to another

This activity helps learners understand how the angle of the Sun affects temperatures around the globe.

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

In this activity, learners review and discuss weathering, erosion and mass wasting, to gain a stronger understanding of how Hickory Run’s Boulder Field was formed after the Laurentide Continental Glac

This is an activity (located on page 3 of PDF under Where's Nano? Activity) about identifying nanoscale objects and phenomena in today's world.

In this activity, learners work in groups to build simple solar stills filled with salt water. After the stills are complete, learners observe what happens when they place the stills in the sun.

Through discussion and hands-on experimentation, learners examine the geological (ancient) carbon cycle.

In this activity, learners explore how watermills have helped harness energy from water through the ages.

In this three-part activity, learners explore how waves are formed and why some waves are bigger than others. First, learners observe waves of water in a pan generated by an electric fan.

This is a virtual representation of a sound mixer containing pre-looped sounds of animal, insect, and environmental noises.

In this activity, learners will plot the distribution of various oozes using information from sediment maps.

In this activity on page 11 of the PDF, learners follow simple steps to recycle old newspaper into new paper.

In this quick activity, learners explore how blubber protects animals from the cold by making a "blubber mitt." Using cooking shortening, two zip-top sandwich bags, and duct tape, learners simulate bl

Water, whether fresh or salty, serves as one of the best electrical conductors on the planet. Does salt effect its conductivity?
