Curated OER
Storm Drain Dumping
Students develop an awareness of what happens to water contaminated through neighborhood runoffs. Students perform an experiment that shows what happens to runoff when it's diverted to different places.
Curated OER
How Sweat Glands Cool Your Body
Learners use water and rubbing alcohol to explain how sweat cools mammals' bodies. They write their findings in a journal. After a lecture/demo, students perform a simple experiment that demonstrates this phenomenae.
Curated OER
Heat of Vaporization of Liquid Nitrogen
Students determine the heat energy needed to vaporize (boil) one gram of liquid nitrogen.
Curated OER
Junior Engineering Surface Water
Learners experience the effects of pollution and erosion on a model of a watershed and explore ways to change the outcome.
Curated OER
Water World Story
Fourth graders write a story about how a drop of water may have traveled to school. They design a presentation on the water cycle.
Curated OER
Desert Dynamics
Young scholars investigate the plants and animals found in Utah deserts and how these organisms have adapted to their environment. They brainstorm ways that desert plants are different from or similar to wetland plants.
Curated OER
Exploring Our Watershed System
Students examine how watershed systems are made up, and visit the Susquehanna watershed system and map out the system. They evaluate the order of watercourses in their area.
Curated OER
Precipitation
Students investigate the formation of rain. They experiment by boiling water in a tea kettle and placing ice cubes and water in a pan. They hold the pan of water over the steaming spout so that the steam strikes the bottom and sides of...

Testing the Accuracy of a Rain Gauge
Students identify and test variables that may affect the accuracy of a rain gauge.
Curated OER
Hey, You Stole My Rain!
Students review various scenarios in regards to the water cycle to determine what the best solution is to the problem. Students write their opinions on the controversies.
Curated OER
DAY AND NIGHT
Students use a lamp as the sun and his/her body as the earth. They rotate in different directions to explain how the earth moves around the sun. Using specific questions in their discussion, students discover the reasons for day and night.
Curated OER
Frozen Film
Learners are introduced to the topic of light interference through this hands-on activity. They observe how light reflects off two surfaces and then meets to form an interesting variation of color on a film surface.
Curated OER
Cavern Life
Students describe elements and conditions that effect cavern life. They explain the three cavern zones and the differences of each zone. They perform various activities based on grade level.
