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 watch a video explaining albedo and its impact on Earth. The video shows visualizations of albedo across Earth and how it can change. Students will interpret the images in the video and answer questions about albedo.

Students will analyze a pie chart (circle graph) showing the distribution of different parts of the Earth system's absorption and reflection of energy. 

This NASA visualization shows sea surface salinity observations (September 2011-September 2014). Students review the video and answer questions.

Students interpret a graph of surface temperatures taken from city districts and other types of communities.

Students model Earth's tectonic plate movement and explore the relationship between these movements and different types of volcanoes.

In this activity learners examine the difference between aurora and airglow, while learning about NASA’s ICON Mission.

In this activity, learners will explore an additional tool used to observe the Sun’s atmosphere, called a coronagraph. Learners will create a flipbook of a coronagraph showing a coronal mass ejection.

NASA visualizers take data – numbers, codes – and turn them into animations people can see and quickly understand.

The Solar Eclipse Implementation Sequence provides a series of lesson plans for students to learn about solar eclipses.
