C1 continues to study science with me two periods a week. In this unit in their science book, they are studying the planet earth. We started out by learning about the different layers of the earth. We are currently studying soil and rocks. In this activity, students brought a small bag of soil to class. First they separated the soil into its main parts, rocks, sand, plant matter, insects and dirt. Then they used a hand lens to take a closer look at what makes up soil. After they had classified and observed, they recorded their observations in the form of pictures.
