In this activity, learners explore the different salinities of various sources of water by taste-testing.

In this activity, learners will estimate the sizes of balls to learn how to estimate the size of hail. Learners will compare their estimates to the estimates of their peers and the real measurements.

Learners build a simple aneroid barometer to learn about changes in barometric pressure and weather forecasting. They observe their barometer and record data over a period of days.

In this engineering activity, learners build a device (an anemometer) to measure how fast the wind is blowing.

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

This is a culminating activity which allows learners to summarize what they know about Woodlands Native Americans by creating illustrations and map symbols for a large outline map (see related Activit

In this activity related to climate change, learners create and explore topographical maps as a means of studying sea level rise.

From the Weather Watchers featured theme on the CYBERCHASE website. Learners will conduct experiments to discover how air temperature and humidity work together to make condensation, dew, and fog.

In this activity, learners make a miniature greenhouse or "terrarium" to explore the greenhouse effect.

In this activity, learners explore the different heating properties of soil and water.

In this activity about problem-solving, learners build a house for the Three Little Pigs using twenty straws and two index cards.

In this activity on page 27, learners perform an experiment to learn about how different types of marine debris degrade and how weather and sunlight affect the rate of degradation.

In this activity, learners test how cornstarch and glitter in water move when disturbed. Learners compare their observations with videos of Jupiter's and Earth's storm movements.

In this demonstration/experiment, learners discover that different colors and materials (metals, fabrics, paints) radiate different amounts of energy and therefore, cool at different rates.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF, learners investigate the solubility of gas in water at different temperatures. This experiment will help learners determine if temperature affects solubility.

In this demonstration, learners explore a variation of a Foucault pendulum, but upside down.

In this 7-10 day investigation, learners develop an understanding of waves and tides and their motion through discussion, demonstration, and hands-on activities.

Learners will understand the relationship between climate change and sea-level rise.

In this interactive and informative group activity, learners use packages of M&M's to illustrate the difference between weather and climate.

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