Here we have a picture of our first big project and an excerpt from a blog which describes the day-to-day observations of their ecocolumn. 
[Directions to follow.]


"WE MADE OUR FIRST ECOCOLUMN TODAY!!!!

The top is our Plant/Animal Chamber... We have a few plants in it and also a worm for now..

The middle is our Decomposition Chamber.. It is made up of wet old wood, sticks, leaves, moss, and a mushroom.

The bottom is our Aquarium Chamber. It is made up of pond water, algae, and a few minnows.
It was fun building the Ecocolumn; it was exciting when we saw the whole thing start to take shape. Hope it stays this fun. I am hoping for the best for our ecocolumn. Will have terrestrials soon, I hope…."
