Measuring Soil Temperatures

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Using an auger, start-up soil scientists bore a core of soil. They examine the sample and record the temperature at three depths in the borehole. This is an attractive activity sheet that succinctly guides your earth science class through observing properties of soil. Be aware that it was written by a farm in the UK, so the word color is written with the British spelling.
