Class four Wormery

Class four have been busy today making wormeries.  They worked in pairs to fill a jar with sand and compost. They had to alternate each layer and make sure it was packed together to allow the worms to move.


We then added some leaves for the worms to eat.  Then we searched for some worms to put in our wormeries.  Unfortunately there are no photos of this stage as our hands were all too muddy!! 


Once back inside the classroom we covered the top of the jars making sure they had air holes. 
We then covered the outside of each jar with black paper and placed the jar inside a cupboard.  We have predicted what we think will happen and will now observe them to see what actually does happen.
