Hi Alice,

I often use the sea level rise/thermal expansion activity on the Windows 
to the Universe site (website originates from the National Center for 
Atmospheric Research staff).  It can be found at 
http://www.windows.ucar.edu/tour/link=/teacher_resources/teach_thermalexpand.html. 
It takes about 10 minutes to see an effect.
