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 experiment, learners examine how pressure affects water flow. In small groups, learners work with water and a soda bottle, and then relate their findings to pressure in the deep ocean.

In this activity (on pages 6-11), learners work as a team to investigate how impact craters on Earth, the Moon or other planets take shape and what patterns they make.

In this space science activity, learners explore transits and the conditions when a transit may be seen.

In this math activity, based on the research of famed astronomer Frank Drake, learners calculate the possibilities of finding intelligent life elsewhere in the universe besides Earth.

This activity guide includes instructions on how to build a "Shake Table" by mounting an eccentric mass (off center) on the shaft of a small dc motor.

In this activity, learners discover how solar energy can be used to heat water.

In this lesson plan, learners examine some of the of greenhouse gas emissions sources in their community.

In this activity, learners explore why animals, specifically dinosaurs, live in families.

In this matching game, learners study the limits of life on Earth to see what other places in the solar system might sustain microbial life.

In this math lesson (on Page 13), learners predict and simulate the likelihood of an event occurring.

In this activity about humans and space travel (page 1 of PDF), learners compare and contrast the behavior of a water-filled plastic bag, both outside and inside of a container of water.

This lesson will helps learners answer the question: How does the bombardment of micrometeoroids make regolith on the moon?

In this investigation learners explore the differences between, and interdependence of, living and nonliving elements in a water ecosystem.

In this activity (page 11 of the PDF), learners investigate how quickly water moves through various materials. They measure and compare the permeability of gravel, sand, and soil.

In this activity (located on page 9 of the PDF), learners are introduced to Aesop's fable, "The Crow and the Pitcher." In the story, a clever crow drops pebbles into a pitcher to cause the water level

This lesson familiarizes learners with the term "tropical belt." First, learners locate the equator, Tropic of Cancer and Tropic of Capricorn on a map and trace these lines with a crayon.

In this activity, learners role-play the part of lake inhabitants and the aquatic exotics who displace the native species.

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 activity (page 18 of PDF), learners will measure the volume of impact craters created by projectiles of different masses.
