Worm Update!

It has almost been 2 weeks since our class has collected leaves for our class compost and added worms to one bag of soil. We studied the habitat of worms and their impact on natural resources. Every child had the chance to put 1 worm in the bag (total of 15 worms) and boy, oh boy, was this an exciting event! 


Last Friday the kids got a chance to record their observations and we all came to the consensus that some of our worms have died and are beginning to decompose. We know that we put 15 worms in the bag, some have decomposed, but we do not know if there are any live worms in the middle of the compost pile. (I admittedly am a little squeamish when it comes to worms and bugs) We will keep you posted! 


Here is a picture of your kids the day we made the compost bags.
