You will need to observe the macro-invertebrates found in a sample O-horizon of soil in order to study types found and the role they play in the breakdown of leaf litter and waste. The DCP and DEC criteria will be assessed for this and it will count towards your end of year mark. Although the planning section has been done already, please write the planning section. Remember to be concise in your Research question. The method involved will need to be researched. Here's a clue, "Tulgreen Funnel" with 70% Ethanol.

DCP
Data: You should already have drawn copies of the specimens.
Analysis: Simply research and state the macro invertebrates found.
Presentation: Demonstrate an understanding of the macro invertebrates found in the soil sample collected.
DEC
Discussion: Discuss the role of macro invertebrates in a broad range of soil (Generally!!)
Evaluation: What could have been done better, more effectively, more accurately?....
Conclusion: How does our soil compare to what a healthy soil should be? What macro invertebrates were found compared to ones that should be?
