Preschool Project

The preschool at St. Ethelreda is a fun, dynamic place. Ms. Clair and Ms. Seaton devised a fun project for the students: building a worm habitat.

The habitat started with a plastic carton. In the carton, compost was created using sand, paper, dirt, grass, leaves, vegetables and more. Once the habitat was prepared, a few worms from the bait shop were added and the preschool worm farm was ready to go!

Here's a picture of some preschoolers looking at and touching one of the worms from the habitat.



Most of the preschoolers were very happy and excited with the worm habitat that they built. Though actually touching the worms was a more difficult issue for some:
  • "I didn't touch them" -Jamyriah
  • "They just tickle" -Dontay
  • "I'm scared of worms" -Beverly
The worm habitat was a wonderful, successful project that the preschool kids really enjoyed. Thank you to Ms. Clair and Ms. Seaton for sharing!
