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 use satellite data to help determine the greatest renewable energy potentials in any given region and develop graphing skills.

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

In this challenge, students will program a rover to use a color sensor on several rock samples, allowing them to simulate how the Mars Curiosity rover uses it's ChemCam instrument to analyze light emitted from geological samples on Mars.

Students gather data on a balloon rocket launch, then create a simple graph to show the results of the tests.

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.

In this standards-aligned unit, students learn about Mars, design a mission to explore the planet, build and test model spacecraft and components, and engage in scientific exploration.

Students use global temperature data to create models and compare short-term trends to long-term trends.
