Worms on the go…

Yesterday my compost worms were back at school.  Here are some highlights of their visit with the kindergarteners.

 

Happy hands hover above the worm bin.

The "chicken" and the "worm" (AKA brave teachers) read the story to the kids..

Once the story finished, the kids sat down to write a sentence about one thing they learned.

"Worms have no ears."

 

"Worms help plants grow."

"Worms live in a cocoon. Worms don't have noses."

    I am only commenting to let you understand what a fantastic experience our daughter experienced reading through your site. She noticed a wide variety of pieces, not to mention what it’s like to have an ideal teaching mindset to have the mediocre ones clearly gain knowledge of selected very confusing subject areas. You truly did more than people’s expected results. I appreciate you for providing such essential, healthy, educational and even easy tips about the topic to Janet.
