I’m trying to get ahead of the students and made my ecosystem complete with a goldfish, plant and worms! My hope is to make smaller ecosystems (just a fish and seeds to watch grow) if we get enough pop bottles... I spent my morning getting the extra fish settled in a small aquarium - thank you science closet - and building my ecosystem. I took the worms to school where they are waiting to be transferred to our compost bins. I’m having a hard time waiting for the students - I want to make sure they get their hands dirty (haha) with this project too. As I was cutting up veggies for the week, I remembered to save my scraps for our bins. I’m hoping to get a bin in the cafeteria for students to put their salad scraps and what not into then when they come to class they can feed the worms!
I found a few baby worms as I was digging for worms for my ecosystem!
I hope to post pictures of the students working and getting our worms comfortable so you all can experience this adventure with us! Maybe I can even start a general blog of our other day to day activities! For now we will stick with the worm blog!
