Description | Students investigate what types of materials biodegrade in the soil, and learn what happens to their trash after they throw it away. They learn about the concepts behind landfills and compost piles. In an associated activity, students create their own miniature landfills—a hands-on way to learn the difference between organic and inorganic waste. |
