    One activity I've done with students is to take an empty xerox box and line the bottom with different boxes that create an ocean floor. The lid of the box is covered with a grid. Using a skinny dowel rod students measure the distance of the depth(sonar). They graph it and then using clay recreate the way they think the ocean floor appears according to the data. Have students create periscopes to view around a corner.
