The 5th graders have been working on the aquaponics unit for a couple of weeks now. Continuing with our green engineering unit, the 5th graders will explore how aquaponics is changing the way people are growing plants and farming, especially where land is limited. Each 5th grader is designing an aquaponics system that they will maintain at home! Choosing from a variety of bowl sizes, the students will design a device that will safely hold their plant in place using a net cup. They will also maintain the health of their fish and will monitor many variables about their systems to ensure they are effective.
