What Students Do:

Students use sensors to measure the moisture levels in the soil. They track how quickly soil dries and experiment with different watering methods. They record daily measurements, graph their data, and determine optimal watering schedules.

Hands-On Activity:

Students plant seeds, monitor soil conditions daily, and adjust watering to observe differences in plant growth.

Why It Matters:

Through observing moisture levels, students learn practical ways to conserve water. It connects them directly to gardening, agriculture, and taking care of the environment in everyday life.
