Learners use red cabbage juice and pH indicator paper to test the acidity and basicity of household materials. The activity links this concept of acids and bases to acid rain and other pollutants.

Learners take on the role of environmental engineers as they design water filters.

As a model of acid rain, learners water plants with three different solutions: water only, vinegar only, vinegar-water mixture.

In this activity, learners explore how environmental engineers might approach solving the problem of an oil spill.

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 crafty chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make their own paper from used paper they may have otherwise thrown away.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to investigate the effect of elevated levels on CO2 on plant growth.

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.
