In this activity students will learn several ways to safely observe a solar eclipse.
Educational Resources - Search Tool
Examine (daytime) surface temperature and solar radiation received at locations found near similar latitudes using NASA Data.
Learners use a compass to trace magnetic field lines of a bar magnet. They observe a CME hitting Earth’s magnetosphere and compare its shape to the magnet. They then apply their understanding of magnetic fields to those found on the Sun.
Students develop and test a hypothesis about how albedo affects temperature.
Students collect and analyze temperature data to explore what governs how much energy is reflected.
This lesson is taken from NASA's Phytopia: Discovery of the Marine Ecosystem written in partnership with Bigelow Laboratory for Ocean Science with funding from the National Science Foundation.
The activities in this guide will help students understand variations in environmental parameters by examining connections among different phenomena measured on local, regional and global scales.
In this activity, students explore the Urban Heat Island Effect phenomenon by collecting temperatures of different materials with respect to their locations. This activity was modified from The NASA PUMAS Collection's "What makes
