(Alien) Soil Sorting #27

Open ishikaChoudhary01 opened 4 years ago

ishikaChoudhary01 commented 4 years ago

Design a lesson based around sorting/filtering "soil." Students can be given random samples of "soil" (made up of things like cheerios, coffee grounds etc) from alien planets. Then they can be given charts of the composition of soil from certain planets. Each group would have to sort out the "soil", to see which planet it belongs to, maybe using a scale to see how much of each element is in their sample.

Objective -introduces students to some science lab techniques, such as weighing materials, recording results, safety etc.

Materials: -scale -gloves -miscellaneous items for soil, such as cereal, pebbles etc
