In Geography, we’ve been examining soil. We brought in soil from our gardens and fields. We found lots of little mini-beasts in our soil. There were also dead plants and even some dead mini-beasts in our soil! These make up the humus layer of soil and act like fertiliser to enrich the soil. Did you know that there are about a MILLION microbes in a teaspoon of soil?! We used petri dishes to show bacteria in the soil.
