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

In this design challenge activity, learners build a four-stringed instrument that can play a tune.

In this activity (Lesson 1), learners work in groups to create tide simulations.

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

In this activity, learners explore liquid crystal thermometers to observe how heat flows by conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation.

In this simulation activity, learners observe what can happen when ocean waves churn up water and oil from an oil spill.

Learners examine the properties of light by experimenting with an LED-flashlight and polarizing filters. When two polarizers are used, they block all light when they are placed at right angles.

In this simple activity, learners explore ocean waves. To find out if water moves forward toward the shore, learners create waves in a simulated ocean (small aquarium tank of water).
