Making Tessellation Creations
Student Report
For the past two weeks, we learned about soil. We have done projects and live expirements with it. The teachers taught us the different types of soil and why it is so important. The teachers said that without it nothing on the planet would exist!!!!
Now for one project we put silt, sand, and soil in a bottle and shook it real hard. We waited for 10 minutes and then looked at the different layers. The teachers also told us not to say dirt or mud or ewwww! We had to say soil. The whole soil thing seemed a little boring but after a while it was actually quite fun.
