February 6-14: Soil Commercials for Plants

The summative activity for our study of the physical characteristics of soil was a collaborative project. Students had to write a script for a commercial for soil, or some aspect of soil– and the audience had to be plants.

The interval of time for this project looks long because we had Introductions due and peer editing, and we had a snow day and a delayed opening.

The commercials can be seen on the class website.

Here are some shots of the script writing.  Notice that students really spread out through the school to do this work– and I am always pleased that they are responsible members of the PDS community and focused on the work when they are allowed to move about the campus.
