Product Details

The soil under our feet is a wonderful place to explore the living world. Using ordinary soil samples and easy-to-follow techniques, students are able to conduct a thorough evaluation of the soil in your area. Students will identify the types of microorganisms in their soil and perform pH, nitrate, and phosphates tests. Conclusions will then be made concerning the soil's ability to support growth. Detailed teacher's guide and student worksheets are included. Complete for 30 students working in pairs.

Performance Expectations

HS-ESS2-2. Analyze geoscience data to make the claim that one change to Earth’s surface can create feedbacks that cause changes to other Earth systems.
MS-ESS3-3. Apply scientific principles to design a method for monitoring and minimizing a human impact on the environment.
MS-LS2-1. Analyze and interpret data to provide evidence for the effects of resource availability on organisms and populations of organisms in an ecosystem.
MS-LS1-4. Use argument based on empirical evidence and scientific reasoning to support an explanation for how characteristic animal behaviors and specialized plant structures affect the probability of successful reproduction of animals and plants respectively
