NOAA Education participates in many education conferences throughout the year. We love meeting educators and helping them learn how to use our resources. Now that conferences are all virtual, we can't give out hard copies of our materials. But, we still want to share our resources with you!

An NGSS-aligned curriculum designed for middle and high school students that uses GPS concepts and activities to stimulate student interest in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM).
This large collection of lessons and activities was developed to encourage educators and students to become personally involved with the voyages and discoveries of the Okeanos Explorer – the only federal vessel dedicated to exploring our largely unknown ocean for the purpose of discovery and the advancement of knowledge about the deep ocean.
Eruptions from the Sun’s surface can cause space weather storms that affect technology here on Earth. This booklet gives an introduction to space weather, how it's predicted, and how it impacts humans.
This elementary activity book helps explain to students how weather over a long period of time describes climate, how sea level rise can affect coastal communities and environments, and how humans are contributing to climate change and what actions can help solve this problem.
This collection of printable "weather wheels" includes information of clouds, hurricanes, tides, and more. This website also includes other weather-related materials.
Learn how the water cycle works using 3-D paper craft activity using legal-sized paper.
