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.
Using Solar Energy
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners discover how solar energy can be used to heat water.
Build A Hydrometer
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners will explore how a hydrometer works by building a working model and conducting experiments.
Cleaning Water with Dirt
Source Institutions
