Building Homes for Our Squirmy Guests

Kindergarten curriculum states all students will learn to observe, record and respond to a variety of living organisms. Room Thirty-One begins their animal study by building temporary terrariums out of the materials we find in the Ainsworth Green Space. This way we can bring our specimens into the classroom for further investigation.






Each table group formed a team of scientists in order to build efficiently. Here, the Pillbug team shows off their first level of soil.

The Worm team adds a little leave litter and a few stones to beautify their environment.

The Snails are a close-knit group ready for action.

The Goldfish team are still waiting for their week to study more aquatic animalia, but for the time being, they are enjoying the rich terra.
