In this weather forecasting activity, learners determine the location of cold and warm fronts on weather plot maps.

In this hands-on activity, learners simulate the crashing and smashing of a meteor impact using household cooking supplies.

In this activity, learners observe the hydrologic cycle in action as water evaporates and condenses to form rain right before their eyes.

Learners tour their school or home looking for sources of indoor air pollutants (IAPs).

Learners cover a bottle with a balloon. When they immerse the bottle in warm water, the balloon inflates. When they immerse the bottle in a bowl of ice, the balloon deflates.

Learners observe and discuss a vacuum cleaner as a model of a baghouse, a device used in cleaning industrial air pollution.

In this activity, learners investigate carbon sequestration by creating a carbonated beverage out of apple juice and dry ice.

In this activity, learners estimate how much water they think can be found in various locations on the Earth in all its states (solid, liquid, and gas) to discover the different water ratios in the Ea

Water on Earth is in lakes, the ocean, rivers, underground, and frozen glaciers.

Learners test two jars of ice water, one covered and one open, for changes in temperature. After placing the jars in the sun, learners discover that the covered jar cools down more slowly.

Learners build devices from rubber bands to test for invisible air pollutants.

In this activity, learners simulate the behavior of the atmosphere.

In this activity, learners simulate Otto von Guericke's famous Magdeburg Hemispheres experiment.

This three-part activity shows learners how to build three meteorology tools: a wind vane, a rain gauge, and a barometer.

This simple hands-on activity demonstrates why the sky appears blue on a sunny day and red during sunrise and sunset.

Learners color and cut out a spiral-shaped snake. When they hang their snake over a radiator, the snake spins.
