Urban Gardening Vs Hydroponics
Students will be creating two different gardens. A hydroponics garden indoors and a raised bed garden outside. Students will be gathering data to help define the question: What is the biggest issue for the biosphere as humans consume limited resources. Students will test limited space and limited water in this experiment. They will do it indoors and outdoors to see if indoors or outdoors makes a difference in growth with those same factors.

In this lesson the students will learn about the hydroponic growing system, which uses water and nutrients to nurture plants without traditional soil. They will also have the opportunity to observe
Students will be learning about adaptation. Students will participate in a project where they will see if seeds can grow in a bag without soil and natural sunlight. They will also compare and contrast
Engineers often create small-size models of a new product to test its design. This is especially true with airplanes. Model testing tells engineers how a design responds to different air conditions
