dishes using their magnifying glass, rulers and colour charts. Learners
will observe what the dry soils characteristics are and they will record
their observations in their individual workbooks but as a team. Once
learners have observed the dry soil, they will add a bit of water to each
dish and compare observe the wet soil. Learners will then compare their
observations of the wet soil with their observations of the dry soil.
