Ant Jungle and Worm Farm

This week we learned about where ants and worms live and what they need to survive. We built an ant jungle and a worm farm. We learned that they both live underground so we gave them lots of sand and soil in their new homes. The children in group 2 each held a worm and thought they felt slimy, slippery, cold and tickly. We have enjoyed watching the ants and worms go about their busy day. So far we have seen the ants exploring their new home and eating pieces of apple and the worms burrowing down creating worm tracks against the glass.
