In this online activity, learners adjust mountain snowfall and temperature to see how glaciers grow and shrink. They will use scientific tools to measure thickness, velocity and glacial budget.

In this group activity, learners use some common objects and work together to simulate the Coriolis effect. During the challenge, learners make predictions and test different scenarios.

In this online activity, learners build their own system of heavenly bodies and watch the gravitational ballet.

Can gelatin (like Jell-O ®) change the speed of light?

In this quick and easy activity and/or demonstration, learners use two empty soda cans to illustrate Bernoulli's principle.

Learners investigate how drag affects the falling rate of objects.

In this activity, learners use tsunami time travel maps to predict how long it will take a tsunami to reach the shore.

Make impact craters with marbles (or rocks or washers) in a container of flour. Find out what you can learn about your "comets" by the craters they make.

In this weather activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will construct their very own anemometer to measure wind speed.

In this engineering activity, learners will get acquainted with the basics of wind energy and power production by fabricating and testing various blade designs for table-top windmills constructed from

Learners conduct four simple experiments to demonstrate the effects of air pressure.

In this activity, learners work in teams build and launch rubberband-powered foam rockets.
