In this activity, learners explore the concept of density-driven currents (thermohaline circulation) and how these currents are affected by climate change.

In this activity, learners use the design thinking process to design and build their own aqueduct, or water bridge.

In this activity, learners manipulate film to create homemade movies. Scratch Film, also known as Direct Animation, is the process of drawing and scratching designs directly onto film.

In this activity on page 7 of the PDF (Water in Our World), learners make their own water treatment systems for cleaning water.

Learners design and create musical instruments from common objects; their challenge is to create an instrument that can make three different tones.

Learners discover that their breath contains carbon dioxide, one of the pollutants found in car exhaust.

In this activity, learners simulate the separation techniques that materials recovery facilities (MRFs) use and then design their own series of recycling techniques.

In this activity, learners explore how the application of nano-sized particles or coatings can change a bigger material’s properties.

In this activity about saturation (page 1 of PDF under SciGirls Activity: Sand Dunes), learners will build a series of sand castle towers using a 16 oz cup.

In this field study, learners discover how to collect data in the field and how their efforts can help certain animals, specifically, amphibians.

In this crafty chemistry activity (on page 2 of the PDF), learners make their own paper from used paper they may have otherwise thrown away.

A magic lantern is a light that projects an image onto a screen.

MarsBound! is an engineering simulation activity in which learners use realistic techniques to plan a mission to Mars.

This is an activity in which learners explore the effects of gravity, motion and momentum while creating art.

Learners create an electrical-circuit maze out of wire, then try to pass a paperclip through the maze without touching the wire.

Water treatment on a large scale enables the supply of clean drinking water to communities.

In this physics activity (page 10 of the PDF), learners will explore how energy from moving water can be used.

In this activity, learners construct a device that projects images onto a surface, so they can trace landscapes and other sights.

In this activity, learners concoct some stretchy green goo called Gak. This activity will introduce learners to polymers, chemical reactions, and how scientists invent new materials.

In this activity on page 4 of the PDF, explore the unique molecular structure and conductive nature of graphene. Learners construct a circuit with a battery and LED bulb.
