Today was all about worms and Google informed me we were oligochaetologists. I hadn't planned on including worms since they aren't actually insects, but Mister and Ladybug are infatuated with them since we have so many in our garden.

These bug magnifiers were $3 at the local teacher supply store. They are easier for Mister and Ladybug to use than magnifying glasses.

We used dirt, sand, water, dead leaves to make a worm habitat. I made sure I used the word habitat to reinforce the concept of what worms need to live.

Ladybug has been asking relentlessly to paint, but we keep running out of time. Today I made it a priority and we did worm paintings. Using brown paint and spaghetti, Mister and Ladybug made worm art.
The worm art is GREAT! These sound like really fun ideas.
ReplyDeleteWhat a creative thing to paint with! It looks like they had fun. :)
