Soil Infiltration (outdoor lab)
Source: Matt
Tiller, Verona Area High School
Lab
(MS Word) This is an outdoor lab investigating infiltration
rates of soils. The lab can be completed in small groups around
your school site or in a natural area. Hints...you will need
some sort of container. Large cans from the food service
department work well. If students place a small 2x4 over the top
edge of the can before pounding into the ground it will help
preserve the integrity of the can. The lab has the most impact
if students can measure the infiltration from more than one
site. |
