Oh my gosh! Look at our garden. Can you see the difference to our garden? It has grown heaps. I saw the cabbages had changed from tiny seedlings to humongous vegetables. Some of our plants have been nibbled by black and yellow caterpillars. Mrs Blakesely was digging for wiggly worms so Room One could look at slippery, slimy worms.

Underneath the soil there are slippery worms. They have a saddle on them that makes the slimy mucus. Worms are good for the soil because they make burrows that gives the soil air and water. If the worms stays on the top of the soil a bird might eat it. They have little spikes on them to help them move. Their poo is called casts.

Wow, our garden is bigger. We know that the snails are hibernating and the worms don't like the sun. The worms don't have legs but they have claws to help them move.

Chomp! Chomp! Nibble! Nibble! The caterpillars are chomping the cabbage because the white butterflies are laying eggs. The caterpillars come out of the eggs and they start eating the silverbeet and cabbage.

Under the ground in our garden there is lots and lots of worms. The worms are good for our soil. They have thicker bits on their body. It is called a saddle. The saddle helps the worm to move. Worms have no bones. They have no feet. They don't have noses. They breathe through their skin.

Wiggle, Wiggle. The worms are long and skinny. The slugs and snails are hibernating.

Nibble. Nibble. Wriggly worms are good for the soil because their poos and wees help the plants grow. "Stop it caterpillars! We want our plants to grow. They are not for you to nibble!"

Chomp! Chomp! We have worms in our garden and worms are good for the soil because the worm poo is good for soil and worm wee is good too. It is wet. We went on the field and there was heaps of worm poo. They eat the soil because they like eating it. Worms live for ten years. If they sit on the soil for too long they get dried up.

ReplyDeleteWell done Room One for growing such a healthy garden with loads of scumptious looking vegetables in it. Jorgia I agree that the caterpillars should stay away from your garden. Great writing everyone!
