EROSION CONTROL PROJECT BY: TYLER, ZACK, ETHAN, MELISSA, AMAL AND ZOYA AND SELIMA

Our first thoughts when we viewed the area *THAT SOME ANIMALS BURROWED IT TOO MUCH AND THE WALLS CAVED.(CREDIT: ZACK) *THIS IS A COOL SPOT BECAUSE ROOT ARE STICKING OUT OF THE GROUND(CREDIT: ETHAN) *I THOUGHT THAT IT WAS COOL BECAUSE ALL OF THE ROOTS WERE STICKING OUT OF THE GROUND.(CREDIT: AMAL) *I THOUGHT THAT ANIMALS DIG IN THE GROUND AND WANTED TO HIBERNATE.(CREDIT: MELISSA) *I THOUGHT WATER CAUSED IT. (CREDIT SELIMA)

Questions we had regarding this area *WHAT MADE THOSE HOLES AND HOW? (CREDIT AMAL) *DID A FLOOD DO IT OR THE ANIMALS? (CREDIT MELISA *HOW DID THE MINI BOULDERS GET THERE? (CREDIT TYLER *HOW DID IT LOOK BEFORE IT GOT ERODED? (CREDIT ZACK *HAVE THE ANIMALS LIVED IN THE SMALL HOLES? (CREDIT ETHAN) *DID WATER CAUSE IT? (CREDIT SELIMA)

roi

IDEAS -ANIMALS MAY STILL LIVE IN ERODED PLACES. -ANIMALS MAY HAVE LIVED IN THE HOLES OR ARE STILL LIVING THERE. -WE THINK THAT SO MANY ANIMALS DUG HOLES AND THEN MOVED OUT BECAUSE IT WAS NOT SAFE FOR THE BABY ANIMALS BECAUSE OF THE FLOODS. -PEOPLE CAN CAUSE EROSION. -WE WILL HELP MAKE SURE THAT THERE WILL BE NO EROSION. -DID THE EROSION CAUSE THE LITTLE CLIFF TO COLAPSE. -DID STORMS CAUSE THIS? _WHY DID THE ANIMALS MAKE THEIR HOMES VERY CLOSE TO THE LITTLE CLIFF? -SOME ANIMALS MAY HAVE STILL LIVE IN THOSE ERODED SPOTS.

What We’re Buying 2 Riprap crush stone 6-12 inches $ ADS plastic pipe 4 inches x 10 feet $ Bag of grass seeds 1 pound $ Bags of mulch $ Work gloves $13.86 TOTAL $53.29
