In this lesson, students will be asked to predict the movement of water over defined landforms. Students will have the opportunity to use an Augmented Reality (AR) sandbox to see how water flows over landforms and how the motion changes when the landscape changes. Students will then have the opportunity to view a second model, stream tables, to see erosion and sedimentation in real-time.

MS-ES2-2: Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth’s surface at varying time and spatial scales.
Students will perform protein purification using column chromatography to gain a greater understanding of the biomanufacturing process of going from a cell to a protein to a product.
In this activity, students will use computational thinking to write a code sequence for a drone to survey an arctic map. This activity is based on the work done by Northrop Grumman in Operation Polar Eye.
