Symbiosis basically means ‘living together&#8217; . These symbiotic interrelationships can be divided into three main categories; Mutualism, when both species involved benefit from the relationship, Commensalism, when one species benefits and the other isn&#8217;t affected, and Parasitism, when one species benefits, and the other is harmed in the process.

Commensalism                              Parasitism                           Mutualism

In class we went outside and observed the soil profile and had an DIRTY good time.  Your job is to be a SOIL SCIENTIST and investigate the layers of soil at your house. Your job is to create a soil profie (similar to the picture on the left) and label and name the soil horizons or [...]]]></description>

Next, students learned the 8 ways that geologist can identify minerals: C3DFHLS- Color, Cleavage, Crystal structure, Density, Fracture, Hardness, Luster, and Streak.  Students [...]]]></description>

This week students are continuing their ride along Earth&#8217;s bumper cars. Students will learn that the Earth is under stress just like HUMANS are. Students can really relate because many of them had stress coming up to present during their VOLCANO projects. The Earth&#8217;s crust undergoes Tension, Compression, and Shearing. Stress puts pressure of the [...]]]></description>

Students had an awesome time learning the parts of a volcano (magma chamber, pipe, vent, crater, lava flow, pyroclastic flow, ash cloud).

Wow, its already February (Feb 2-6). Last week we learned that convection currents happen in the mantle due to the molten material. Convection currents are the primary reason that the Earth&#8217;s crust moves. This week we continue with journey to the center to the Earth by talking about sea-floor spreading which was [...]]]></description>
