This Red Wiggler Worm (Eisenia foetida) is native to Europe and this Landis Winter Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) comes from a species first domesticated in Egypt, and they both say: "No Ban on Stolen Land" and have also been known to say "No Wall on Stolen Land". So excited to see them both this morning! #landiswinterlettuce #lactucasativa #redwigglers #eiseniafoetida #nobannowall #nobanonstolenland #nowallonstolenland

Red Wigglers!

"Yuck!", "It pooped on me!" and "It's so slimy!" were just a few of the things overheard in my class when I introduced Red Wiggler worms to my students. As a 5th grade science teacher, I am always looking for engaging and educational ways to teach my students about the environment, recycling, and the importance of composting.

Worm bins, also known as vermicomposters, are containers filled with worms, bedding, and food scraps. I have the worms in a 10-gallon glass tank with a screen lid. We use recycled, shredded paper for the bedding and feed them fruit/veggie leftovers from our lunches. The worms break down the food scraps, creating nutrient-rich compost that can be used to fertilize plants.

Having a worm bin in my classroom has had several positive effects on student learning. First, the hands-on experience with working with worms and composting has made the concepts of recycling and waste reduction more tangible and engaging. Second, the worm bins have encouraged teamwork and collaboration among the students. They have had to work together to maintain the bin and share the responsibilities of feeding and monitoring the worms. I'd love to help your class start a worm bin! Let me know if you have any questions!

Grow most of my food and make my own dirt. Turned the worm farm. Lots of red wigglers. They eat veggies scraps, coffee, cardboard etc... #WormFarm #RedWigglers (at New York, New York) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_MIqISpYHw/?igshid=duv3gpka6drl
