Product Details & Documents

Explore the science behind soil formation with this hands-on lab kit, ideal for environmental science and geology education.

  • Interactive lab kit – Demonstrates the stages of soil formation through simple, engaging experiments

    Non-Hazardous materials – Safe for classroom and group use with easy-to-follow instructions

    Teacher's guide included

    STEM learning tool – Ideal for teaching earth science, geology, and environmental science

The Soil Formation Lab Kit offers an interactive experience for students to explore soil creation and distinguish between soil and sediment. Through experiments with various materials and environmental factors, students can observe how weathering, erosion, and biological activity contribute to soil development. Ideal for earth science classrooms, this kit provides hands-on learning about soil composition, its role in ecosystems, and the factors influencing soil quality and formation.

Additionally, students will understand the critical importance of soil, despite its thin layer in most parts of the world. They will start with the basics, learning how soil is formed by making their own 'rock' from carbonates, simulating acid rain effects with vinegar and water, observing the role of plant life in soil formation, and distinguishing between finely crushed rock particles and true soil. The kit includes materials for 15 setups, a teacher's guide, and instructions.
