Teen Moon: Moon Ooze
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners model how the Moon's volcanic period reshaped its earlier features. Learners consider that the broad, shallow impact basins--which had formed earlier while it was a ...
Mars from Above: Viewing Volcanoes
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners create volcanoes like those they have examined on Earth and Mars through images taken by spacecraft. Using baking soda and vinegar, learners model volcanic eruptions and...
Mars from Above: Carving Channels
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners create channel features with flowing water, comparing their observations to real images of Mars and Earth taken by satellites/orbiters. Learners' observations of the...
Weather Stations: Temperature and Pressure
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners discover the relationship between temperature and pressure in the lower atmospheres of Jupiter and Earth. Learners chart the increasing temperature as they add pressure...
Weather Stations: Winds
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners use a toaster to generate wind and compare the appliance's heat source to Jupiter's own hot interior. Learners discover that convection drives wind on Jupiter...
The Carbon Cycle: How It Works
NOAAAdd to list DetailsIn this game, learners walk through an imaginary Carbon Cycle and explore the ways in which carbon is stored in reservoirs and the processes that transport the carbon atom from one location to...
Weather Stations: Storms
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn 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. This...
Weather Stations: Phase Change
Lunar and Planetary InstituteAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners observe the water cycle in action! Water vapor in a tumbler condenses on chilled aluminum foil — producing the liquid form of water familiar to us as rain and dew....
The Carbon Cycle: Carbon Tracker
NOAAAdd to list DetailsIn this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world. This game will help learners better...
Aerial Imagery
Twin Cities Public TelevisionAdd to list DetailsThis activity (on page 2 of the PDF under SciGirls Activity: Earthquakes) is a full inquiry investigation into aerial imagery. Learners will use the internet to gather free aerial imagery of nearby...
