In an investigation called "Shape It!" learners craft tiny boats out of clay, set them afloat on water and then add weight loads to them, in order to explore: how objects stay afloat in water; what th

In this investigation, learners explore the force known as buoyancy by placing various objects into water and observing how they behave (for example, which sink more quickly, which float, how much wat

Learners work in groups to construct bridges using stale marshmallows and toothpicks.

Learners design, build, and test models of "dragon boats" made from up to three milk cartons.

In this activity, learners build water-propelled engines from soft drink cans.

In this activity, learners use the design thinking process to design and build their own aqueduct, or water bridge.

In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will explore how energy from moving water can be used.

Water sticks to all kinds of things in nature — flowers, leaves, spider webs - and doesn't stick to others, such as a duck's back.
