Using real data from NASA’s GRACE satellites, students will track water mass changes in the U.S.

Students will use the engineering design process to design, build, test and improve a model satellite intended to investigate the surface of a planet.

This board-game activity teaches students the process of design, engineering and technology for a mission to Mars.

What is sea-level rise and how does it affect us? This "Teachable Moment" looks at the science behind sea-level rise and offers lessons and tools for teaching students about this important climate topic.

Students create a scale model of the solar system using beads and string.

In this activity, students will use sea-level rise data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends. They will then determine whether sea-level rise is occurring based on the data.

Students use microcontrollers and temperature sensors to measure the flow of heat through a soil sample.

Students use satellite and rover images to learn about the various features and materials that cause color variation on the surface of Mars, then create their own “Marscape.”

Students try to determine the interior makeup of an egg (hard-boiled or raw) based on their understanding of center of mass and Newton’s first law of motion.
