New Additions to the Classroom

One of the rules for our biome project was not to include any living things that could escape.  Well, apparently worms can escape.  And, when they dry up and die ants find them.  We had several piles of ants, concentrated (vocabulary!) on a few worms in the back of our room.  I managed to get most into the trash can and then hosed down the rest.  My custodian is going to love me!

But wait, there's one more new addition and this one isn't so bad, a caterpillar on our sunflower.  And today it was in a cocoon!  The student took it home so she'll have to keep us updated on its progress.
