3rd Quarter: March 6 - 10


Monday, March 6th

Today in class….
  • Today we finished our last tests on soil with porosity and pH. 
  • Remember that as you do any necessary research to cite the website or sources you use. 
  • Afterwards, we talked a bit about the different types of soil, soil horizons, and soil forming factors. 
  • Towards the end of class, we started to look at the soil texture triangle. We'll have some time to work more with that next time. 
HOMEWORK: Due Monday - Final reflection on soil test
                          Unit 8, Assignment 2 **Skipping assignment 1 which focused on weathering (you guys are well equipped for that already!)

Wednesday, March 8th

Today in class….
  • Today we finished looking at our soil triangle and how to determine the kind of soil we have based on measurements of clay, silt, and sand. 
  • Afterwards, we looked at porosity and permeability of soil before moving on to mass movements of land and rock. 
  • Some of these movements can be slow and steady like soil creep or more destructive like mud or debris flows.
