Exploring Products: Nano Sand
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how water behaves differently when it comes in contact with "nano sand" and regular sand.
From Here to There
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners discover ways to move water across the water table.
Water Wire: Electricity Flowing Through Water
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 10 of the PDF, learners detect the amount of energy that can flow through a sodium chloride electrolyte solution with a light sensor.
Float My Boat
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners use tinfoil to build and test their own boats - which designs will float, and which will sink?
Rescue Mission
Source Institutions
In this hands-on activity, learners use the steps of the design process to create a hook to rescue a "space capsule" from the water.
Boats Afloat
Source Institutions
In this water activity, learners build boats that float and sink. First, learners listen to the book, "Who Sank the Boat" and practice making predictions throughout the story.
Watercraft
Source Institutions
In this design challenge activity, learners build a boat that can hold 25 pennies (or 15 one inch metal washers) for at least ten seconds before sinking.
Exploring Products: Nano Fabrics
Source Institutions
In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized "whiskers" can protect clothing from stains.
Can Nutrients in Water Cause Harm?
Source Institutions
In this water pollution activity, learners create pond water cultures and investigate the effects of adding chemicals or natural nutrients.
Cleaning Water with Dirt
Source Institutions
In this activity on page 7 of the PDF (Water in Our World), learners make their own water treatment systems for cleaning water.
Exploring Forces: Gravity
Source Institutions
In this nanoscience activity, learners discover that it's easy to pour water out of a regular-sized cup, but not out of a miniature cup.
