Classification of soils and comparing Earth and Mars: Use four of your five senses to classify soils. Biodiversity: Compare the diversity index of three Southeastern habitats. Wetlands and water quality: Conduct tests of water quality and compare three local wetlands. Chemistry: Conduct chemical and physical tests on four known chemicals and then identify an unknown chemical. Animal adaptations and the behavior of earthworms: Conduct experiments to determine how earthworms respond to environmental variables. Genetics and probability: Activities that illustrate probability and Mendelian inheritance. Predator-prey interactions: Be a "predator for a day" and conduct experiments to determine what prey items particular predators prefer.
