The 2025 NOAA Education Report is now available! We feature short highlights, new resources, award recognitions, and photos from the past year that showcase our amazing NOAA Education community. These highlights demonstrate how we connect the nation with NOAA-related sciences, places, products, and services. Read now: https://www.noaa.gov/education/reports/2025-noaa-education-report

Ever wonder how we map the ocean floor without actually seeing it? In this hands-on science activity, students (grades 6-12) step into the shoes of oceanographers to solve the mysteries of the deep! Using "sounding rods," they’ll probe a hidden landscape and build a real 3D model of the seafloor — simulating the same sonar technology used by NOAA.

Students will learn the science behind:
✅ How sonar works
✅ How to identify underwater landforms
✅ Data visualization and 3D modeling techniques

Check out the full video tutorial and step-by-step instructions at the link in bio.
