Measure the Speed of a Water Leak
Source Institutions
In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity), learners will measure the rate at which water streams out of a leaky cup.

Under Pressure
Source Institutions
In this experiment, learners examine how pressure affects water flow. In small groups, learners work with water and a soda bottle, and then relate their findings to pressure in the deep ocean.

Earth Walk
Source Institutions
In this hands-on and feet-on excursion, learners take a science walk to visualize the planet's immense size and numerous structures, without the usual scale and ratio dimensions found in most textbook
Simple Submarine
Source Institutions
Using simple, inexpensive items, learners build and test submarine models.

3...2...1 Puff!
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners build small indoor paper rockets, determine their flight stability, and launch them by blowing air through a drinking straw.

Drawing Conclusions
Source Institutions
In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.

Portable Potable Pressure
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use plastic water bottles, wood, and water to build an inexpensive and portable tool to demonstrate one atmosphere of pressure at sea level.

Challenge: Microgravity
Source Institutions
In this activity about the circulatory system and space travel (on page 38 of the PDF), learners use water balloons to simulate the effects of gravity and microgravity on fluid distribution in the bod

I Can't Take the Pressure!
Learners develop an understanding of air pressure in two different activities.

The Crayon Rock Cycle
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use crayons to draw conclusions about rocks and the rock cycle.
