| Looking for worms! |
On December 7, Mrs. Vander Veen taught Ms. Fein's and Mr. Jacobs' 2nd grade students about vermi-composting which is composting with worms. We have red wriggler worms living in our school worm bin. The students first learned about rot and the process of decomposition that occurs with the food that is placed in the worm bin for the worms to eat. They then contributed to the chart that listed what worms can and cannot eat. After writing in their journals, the students made worm salad with fruit and vegetable scraps which they fed to the worms. They had carrots for a snack in the garden and their teachers were given gummy worms to pass out later.
