Avalanche
Source Institutions
In this geology activity, learners create a model using a mixture of salt and sand inside a CD case. When the case is tilted or inverted, the mixture dramatically sorts into a layered pattern.
Convection Current
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners make their own heat waves in an aquarium.
Sink It
Source Institutions
Learners classify a variety of objects by their characteristics. They then design an experiment to determine which objects float or sink in water and add this characteristic to their classification.
Differing Densities: Fresh and Salt Water
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners visualize the differences in water density and relate this to the potential consequences of increased glacial melting.
Floating and Falling Flows
Learners create beautiful fluid motion. They explore fluid dynamics, surface tension, solubility, and buoyancy while mixing liquids together.
Global Climate Change and Sea Level Rise
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners practice the steps involved in a scientific investigation while learning why ice formations on land (not those on water) will cause a rise in sea level upon melting.
