Soil is the key to a great garden and worms help to break down this valuable resource! This week students learned all about worms, including what they eat and their basic anatomy. We were going to head outside to race some worms, but it was pouring with rain (great for worms, not so great for students).

We also read "Diary of a Worm," by Doreen Cronin and "Compost Stew," by Mary McKenna Siddals

This week we started with a book by Will Allen called "Will Allen and the Growing Table". The book describes Allen's life from the garden as a child, to his sports career in Belgium back to his love of food and helping others. We headed outside and cleaned up the garden. We filled up 10 giant bags!
