My
Project
My kindergarten class just set up
a composting worm bin in our classroom and we absolutely love our worms! We
are learning about how to set up a composting worm bin, what to feed our
worms and the best moisture conditions for our bin. We are obsessed with learning
facts about worms! Did you know that worms smell through their skin? Did you
know that worms are both male and female? We can't get enough of learning
about worms! In the spring, we are going to add worm castings to our school
garden! I would love us to show our worm bin pride each Wednesday with all of
us, including our Chef puppet, wearing matching"Ask Me About My
Worms" t-shirts! It will be a Wiggling Worm Wednesday celebration each
week! We really are becoming experts, and I know that my students will love
answering questions from other kids and teachers in the school! We also need
a food processor for our worms so we can puree food for them. This will make
it easier for them to eat before food starts to rot and it will reduce the
risk of a smelly bin (and then a smelly classroom)! We could use more
books about worms including What is A Red Wiggler? and Kyle in His Compost
Pile. My students will read these books while researching red wiggler worms
during our expert book unit. They will then be able to add these books to
their own personal home libraries!
