Grade 3 students at the Pudong campus began their study of soil with a tasty treat on March 2nd! Students started with the questions: “What is soil?” and “How does rock turn into soil?” After learning about the soil process and the different layers, students became soil scientists and created “soil profiles.” The fun spin was the soil profile materials were edible! First, students used their five senses and descriptive writing skills to record their observations of the soil materials. Then, they assembled their soil profiles. When these tasks were finished, they could dig into the dirt. This was great fun for the students to experience “delicious dirt!”
