Learners develop awareness and understanding of the daily air quality using the Air Quality Index (AQI) listed in the newspaper or online.

In this activity, learners use rice grains to model the composition of the atmosphere of the Earth today and in 1880. Learners assemble the model while measuring percentages.

In this activity, learners observe the effect of transpiration as water is moved from the ground to the atmosphere.

Learners test two jars containing hot water, one covered with plastic and one open, for changes in temperature.

Learners observe two model atmospheres -- one with normal atmospheric composition and another with an elevated concentration of carbon dioxide.

Get all wrapped up in a lesson about skin!

In this activity, learners create a model using metric measuring tapes and atmosphere composition data.

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

In this activity, learners use plastic water bottles, wood, and water to build an inexpensive and portable tool to demonstrate one atmosphere of pressure at sea level.

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

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

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.

In this activity, learners conduct an experiment to investigate the effect of elevated levels on CO2 on plant growth.

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

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.
