In this activity, learners explore two properties of gases: gases take up space and exert pressure. Learners assemble two flasks and a beaker, connecting them with stoppers and tubing.

In this outdoor activity, learners visit the intertidal zone of a rocky coastal site well populated with marine organisms.

In this activity, learners explore how watermills have helped harness energy from water through the ages.

This is part 2 of the three-part "Crayon Rock Cycle" activity and must be done after part 1: Sedimentary Rocks. In this activity, learners explore how metamorphic rocks form.

In this chemistry activity, learners prepare two petri dishes, one filled with water and one filled with milk.

In this activity, learners explore the function and engineering of dams and how dams have many uses and solve many problems in the world.

Learners create a model of a wetland to observe how it absorbs and filters water from the environment.

In this activity, learners will discover why there are holes in bread.

This three-part lab helps learners understand the essential principles governing diffusion and osmosis.

Learners use a candle to investigate the products of combustion. When a glass rod is held over a lit candle, the candle flame deposits carbon on the rod.

Build a hydrometer (measures the density of a liquid) using a pipet or eyedropper.

In this outdoor activity/field trip, learners investigate the special shapes, holding structures and holding behaviors that real organisms use in streams, rivers, creeks or coast intertidal zones to a

In this activity, learners interact with a 3-D model of a watershed to better understand the interconnectedness of terrestrial and aquatic environments.

In this outdoor activity, learners race small boats, made of cork, balsa wood, popsicle sticks etc., to investigate the rate and direction of currents in a stream or creek.

In this multi-part activity learners examine non-point water pollution.

Learners create a small explosion by collecting hydrogen and oxygen gas together and squeezing them into a flame.

Learners follow directions to construct a water-powered electrical generator using a turbine made from plastic spoons.

In this activity, learners explore and compare the buoyant properties of materials found in nature and in human-made materials.

In this activity, learners will make homemade jello that glows under a blacklight. They will learn about quinine, an ingredient in tonic water that is fluorescent.

Learners place water and part of an antacid tablet in a film canister. The reaction creates a gas reaction that launches the film canister like a rocket.
