This kit is a teaching tool to enhance students' understanding and engagement with the world of soils. It begins with the invitation to delve into the story of soil, its central role in sustaining life on earth, and our part to help care for it. Subsequent hands-on activities focus on what soils are made of, the diversity of life soils contain, how soils interact with water, their productive capacity to grow food, as well as an exploration of the root zone and why it is important to protect soils from erosion.
