We are moving out of the bug unit and into our garden unit (although the bugs can be found in the garden!). I've been working all week on getting our shelves ready (pics next week of tools and toys).
BOOKS:
Bob and Otto by Robert O. Bruel
Worms for Lunch by Leonid Gore
Planting Seeds by Nancy Elizabeth Wallace
Adam and Eve in the Garden a Zonderkids "I Can Read!" book
The Tiny Seed by Eric Carle
Growing Vegetable Soup by Lois Ehlert
One Watermelon Seed by Celia Barker Lottridge and Karen Patkau
MOON SAND:
Made "E's" using cookie cutters and by connecting "moon sand worms"
"M" signing the letter "E"
COLORING:
Ee is for Earthworms (sorry no pictures of this, but you can find the worksheet here)
"E" CRAFT:
Prep:
Cut the letter "E" out of construction paper.
Cut out a worm.
Grind black beans (or something else you can use as "earth")
Directions:
Glue earthworm to the letter "E". Cover the "E" with glue and spread ground black beans over it. It will look like the earthworm is popping up out of the earth.

I'm not sure where I got this craft idea from, but the kids loved it!
Materials:
Cup

Googly Eyes

Trace and cut out child's handprints from the green construction paper.
Poke hole in bottom of cup (large enough for the straw to fit through).

Glue googly eyes to the straw.

Enjoy playing peek-a-boo with your earthworm!
