You can enhance your classroom with posters on several soil topics:
Dig It! The Scoop on Soil
This poster is our most recent project and provides an overview of soil - what it is (and isn't), why it's important, soil horizons, texture, soil triangle, formation, and processes. This unique poster is two-sided with side A being designed for the middle-school grades while side B is for the more advanced levels (typically high school).
Standard Size (11x8.5 inches) Side One | Side Two (pdfs)
Large Format (34x22 inches) Side One | Side Two (pdfs)
This poster is rich with information on the 12 orders of soil taxonomy - including images of each. The reverse side provides information on what is the soil taxonomy, a cool map of the US with the soil orders, information on how soils are mapped, soil surveys, and why soils are different. This is designed for the high school, college, and technical level.
Soil scientists explore and seek to understand the earth's land and water resources. Students of soil science learn to identify, interpret, and manage soils for agriculture, forestry, rangeland, ecosystems, urban uses, reclamation, and so much more. Careers range over a wide variety of professional Opportunities. This poster highlights career options and the interests, skills, and possibilities of becoming a soil scientist! There is also an accompanying brochure available.
