Thank you for the great outdoor class on Friday! I hope you are all enjoying some sunshine.
Composting is coming to Livingstone soon and this assignment will help you to be a school expert.
With 14 days to complete this assignment I am expecting completion by the due date. The information is easily available. For example, you might try http://www.metrovancouver.org/services/solidwaste/Residents/composting/Pages/default.aspx and find out most of what you need to know.
To meet the requirements of the assignment, please be sure to include the information below from your class handout.

COPY OF HANDOUT
Explain how composting works. Research the information you need by either using the internet, asking a gardener you know or reading a book.
This is an important third term assignment worth 25 marks.
INCLUDE:
- A carefully labelled diagram showing what is in a compost ecosystem
- 8 or more point form notes on the processes involved (what takes places in a compost, are there living things in there, what are they doing?)
- List 10 things that are good to put in a compost.
- List 10 things that cannot go in a compost.
- Answer the question: Do you think you will participate in composting when Livingstone starts to collect compostable materials? Why or why not?
