I am Gabbeh that is all.

What were the scientist's research questions?
what would make the library a better environment? How can she get more kids to come? What can she change about the library to make the library more useful?

How did she find the answers to these questions? (What Data did she collect)
She asked students their oppinions.

How did she collect the data?
she interveiwed students aking them what they want in the library

What were her observations and analysis of the data? (What did she conclude)
She concluded that she needed to update the library to make it more student orrianted

Based on these conclusions, how did this scientist change her environment?
she added things that the students she questioned wanted the library to be.

=**Soil unit**= 1. Use a spoon to separate a sample of soil into individual pieces. With a magnifying lens, try to identify the different particles in the sample. Note the amounts of each "type" of particle. (2 pts.)

2. Post a "recipe" for the sample of soil on your wiki-page. Give a name for each of your "ingredients" and describe their consistency. (5 pts.)

3. Compare your recipe with your classmates. Post at least 1 comment on 3 other students pages (but feel free to post on everyone's page). (3pts.)

The soil sample I seperated contained:
Clumps of solid fiberus material Gold peices flakey solf normal soild dark colored little sticks about 1 cm average


 * Soil around the world discusion questions:**
 * What are some key factors that influence the composition of soils around the world? The temperature of the area, the composition of the land. The different types of rock that the soil broke down from.
 * From studying these images, can you infer some of the processes that have formed particular soil profiles?
 * What are some of the characteristics of soils in the United States and how do these relate to the kinds of vegetation occurring on them?
 * Why is it important to know the soil structure of a particular area? Give several reasons. It is important to know the stucture of the soil in a particular area so you can know wheather it is ok to plant in said soil and if the plants will survive and thrive.
 * What types of soil are in your area? our soil is spodosols.

Soil microbes and global warming discusion questions:

 * What are microbes? What role do microbes in the permafrost play in the functioning of the ecosystem?
 * How do scientists explain the ability of microbes to carry on respiration at very low temperatures in the permafrost layers?
 * What is one possible connection between microbial action in the permafrost layer and global climate change?
 * How would the permanent melting of the permafrost in an area impact microbial communities? What are some possible impacts on the broader ecosystem that could result?
 * What is meant by the term "positive feedback loop"? Use an example from this video to explain the concept.


 * Instructions:** Read a backgroud article on your chosen topic. After you've finished reading, answer the questions below:

1. __Where did you find this article? (If online, post the link so your team can check it out.)__

2. __What were the main ideas? (Summarize the article for us. Maybe a sentence or two on each big idea or paragraph)__

3. __What did you find interesting or helpful? (Anything you think the group can use or duplicate in your PSA? Good pics? Graphics? Data? etc.)__

4. __What questions do you have after reading the article? (Apply the article to WHS or Waltham. How does our school/community fit into the picture?)__

5. __What's next? (Do you think your group should consult another source? Does this article give you ideas for the next step? Are there more questions to be answered?)__
