    This document outlines an activity where students will investigate evidence that humans impact ecosystems. It is divided into three parts: a Do Now discussion on whether humans impact ecosystems, an investigation period where students use tools like a soil pH meter to gather evidence in three rounds, and an Exit Ticket where students pitch a plan to use a tool next class. The goal is for students to find proof that human actions affect ecosystems.
