Soil inquiry: Observations

We have been exploring our school to identify different soils and what their uses are. We found several different types. The ones we looked at more closely were sand, garden, soil and playground soil.  We noticed that the soil in the sandpit was gritty and felt rough when we rubbed it together in our hands.  We took a sample of each and put them into a jar and filled it with water. The next day we talked about our observations. We noticed lots of different things such as some bits were floating and others were settled on the bottom.
