Despite the high rate of growth in rainforests the soil is poor in nutrients. The nutrients have been washed out of the soils by heavy rainfall. In this project, students are going to investigate how the nutrients in compost affect the rate of growth of seedlings.

 In this activity students build a model rocket from a kit and test it works

They can investigate the effect of differing engine size or measure the maximum altitude reached by a rocket by using a clinometer and a long tape measure or trundle wheel ...
