This week 2nd graders in Ms. Fein's class and Ms. Yoshida's class learned about decomposing and organic matter in soil as part of their introduction to composting. They put fruit and veggie scraps. newspaper, coffee grounds and coffee filters and dirt in a plastic bag. We'll look at the bags in a few weeks to see how the contents have changed. At that time we'll start to put items in our worm bin.
We discussed some decomposers including pill bugs and red wriggler worms.
