Kindergartners unearthed wiggly, slippery worms as we pulled and dug the roots of the mint tea in an effort to help first grade clear space for their strawberry plants. We started a Worm Count making tallies for every worm we found. The earthworms looked very different than the silkworms. How are they alike? How are they different? Where do they live? What do they eat? Is a silkworm a worm...or is it a different kind of creature. If so, why would it be called a silkworm? It was time to get out the books on our shelves all about earthworms and silkworms and see what we could find out.
