In this environmental science activity (page 3 of the PDF), leaners will identify and explain the causes of erosion.

In this activity, learners investigate and compare the rate of drying in different conditions.

In this activity, learners explore how various energy sources can be used to cause a turbine to rotate.

In this sunny day experiment, learners measure and compare how quickly light and dark colored materials absorb heat.

In this activity, learners explore how anemometers work to record wind speeds and how the equipment has undergone engineering adaptations over time.

In this outdoor, beach activity, learners use tennis balls, water balloons and other simple devices to investigate the movement of waves and currents off a sandy beach.

In this activity, learners conduct three experiments to examine temperature, the different stages of the water cycle, and how convection creates wind.

This activity (located on page 3 of the PDF under GPS: Glaciers Activity) is a full inquiry investigation about the different causes of glacial melt.

In this activity, learners evaluate the potential performance of air rockets placed inside a wind tunnel.

In this activity, learners investigate wind by comparing the force of wind in different locations. Learners build wind-o-meters out of wooden sticks and strips of paper.

In this activity, learners use simple items to construct a device for indicating air pressure changes.

In this outdoor activity, learners use only their senses to to find the extremes of several environmental variables or physical factors: wind, temperature, light, slope and moisture.

In this experiment, learners use a blow dryer and water bottle to observe and record changes in air pressure caused by changes in temperature.
