Erosion Testing Model
This is an erosion-testing model to help you understand how to prevent erosion and how it works. (DISCLAIMER THIS PROJECT WAS CREATED BY A TWELVE YEAR OLD WHO GOES MIDDLE SCHOOL IN WASHINGTON) (For safety reasons I cannot disclose my real name or school.)
Supplies
Garden soil, tin lasagna/casserole pan, scissors, marker, cup, water, something to prop the tin up at a forty-degree angle, and materials to test your erosion prevention with (not in photo).
Trace the Exit Hole
This is where the dirty dirt-water will drain out of.
Cut the Exit Hole
Well there's not really anything to be explained, just cut around the lines!
Load the Dirt
Dump the dirt in
Shape the Dirt
Pour the Water
Watch as the soil is eroded, and make observations.
Revise
Use household items to try to prevent the erosion of the soil.
