In this activity, learners explore the process of condensation.

In this activity, learners make a model of the hot water of a deep sea vent in the cold water of the ocean to learn about one of the ocean's most amazing and bizarre underwater habitats.

In this activity, learners are challenged to lift a floating ice cube out of a glass of water using just one end of a piece of string.

In this activity on page 14 of the PDF (Rethinking the 3 R’s: It’s Easy to be Green), learners turn plain pieces of recycled plastic into shrunken works of art.

In this activity, learners explore liquid crystal thermometers to observe how heat flows by conduction, convection, radiation, and evaporation.

This lesson focuses on surface area and how the shape of sugar crystals may differ as they are grown from sugars of different coarseness.

In this activity, learners mix ingredients in a plastic bag, and then identify three characteristics of a chemical reaction: production of heat, color change, and production of a gas.

In this activity, sodium acetate hand warmers are used to introduce learners to supersaturated solutions, crystallization, and exothermic reactions.

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

In this activity, learners play NOAA's Carbon Tracker game and discover ways to keep track of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases in the world.

In this activity, learners build models of comets, using edible materials, to learn about comets' structure.

In this chemistry activity (page 1 of the PDF), learners will observe a physical change.

In this activity (pages 8-9), learners investigate the properties of smart materials, which are materials that respond to things that happen around them.

In this activity, learners will explore saturated solutions and discover how crystals form.

In this two-part activity, learners explore the properties of liquid crystals, which are responsible for why mood rings change color.

In this activity/demonstration, learners observe what happens when two ping pong balls are suspended in the air by a hair dryer. Use this activity to demonstrate how rain drops grow by coalescence.

This lesson challenges groups of learners to design and construct a wind generator with the most electrical output.

In this physics demonstration, learners will be surprised when a lemon slice appears to magically levitate within a pint glass.

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

This experiment is designed to illustrate how fluids, including water, have the ability to flow.
