Click on the links below to see pictures of the components we put into our TerrAqua system. See the Is It Alive? activity instructions for questions to consider, use the Is It Alive? Data Sheet (PDF) to classify each component as living, dead, or nonliving. If you need help, the TerrAqua Column Organisms Information Sheet (PDF) may be useful.
Note: Because our goals were to use the TerrAqua Column as a learning tool for your Essential Science for Teachers course, we combined local collections with purchased specimens to make our system particularly diverse; your components, of course, may differ.
