Learning About, Catching, and Studying Worms
At The Children's Preschool, they followed an emergent curriculum where the students helped determine what everyone learned about. The kids said they were interested in becoming informed about worms so the class worked to learn all about them before catching some and studying the worms!
Catching some worms
After reading books about worms and learning how they are found in the dirt, the children went outside and dug in the dirt to find some worms. They used their tools and eventually they did find some!
Studying the worms
The kids had a great time looking at the worms up close and (carefully) handling them.
Putting the worms back
After they looked at the worms, the kiddos put them back in the dirt and put some soil on top so the worms could slither away. It was so much fun studying worms!
