We started our week with an investigation, with Leeanna, about earthworms! She had a bin of dirt and worms, and we dug right in. We were given the opportunity to touch the earthworms if we were careful. We found out a lot of interesting facts about earthworms!
Our science table now has a worm habitat, where we can watch the worms' progress through the dirt and sand in a jar, AND a caterpillar that is ready to form a chrysalis- a painted lady.
Leeanna read us a wonderful story about Otto and Bob, a caterpillar and worm, that form a friendship despite their differences and ways of being.
We have continued to read our "original stories" complete with comments at the end of each reading.....
And there have been many opportunities to head outside and investigate the insect world!
Until Next Time,
Michele
