Our New Science Unit...SOILS

We started a new science unit. It's about SOILS. We have these bags with some grass, a little bit of soil, a piece of fruit or vegetables, and a worm. We have a book about rot. It's called What Rot! Nature's Mighty Recycler. Do you know how rot helps soil? It takes the things it rots and makes it soil. Did you know that worms help soil? Well they do. Their castings help the soil. Without soil there wouldn't be plants, trees, or even some animals. Did you know all that? Well, yes or no, now you do. I feel very good about knowing this stuff. Do you?
