I CARE SOIL

Description

• Age of pupils: 8-16 years

This project focused on the lack of awareness about the importance which contributes to soil degradation. It generated a constructive dialogue and provided practical exercises from which the students in the age of eight to sixteen years old could see the importance of soil. The activity aimed to teach students to recognize animals living in soil – from bees to microorganisms. The students also participated in taking soil samples and analysing the samples. A professor demonstrated through an experiment how a solution with soil and reagents changed colour with variations from purple to red to green due to the interaction between some components of the soil and reagents.
