Creating a Terrarium

Hey Ladies and Gents,
Recently, I took a close look at Ontario's Science Curriculum.  After close examiniation, I saw an opportunity to create terrariums with my class.

I had my students bring in 2L pop bottles from home, and I bought soil, birdseed and some pebbles. 

Below is a copy of the "Lab Booklet" that I had my Grade Fours complete.  The kids have really had fun with it, documenting the process, and really feeling like "Junior" students. 

I will post some pictures of our progress shortly!
