As part of our science work, we had to investigate which habitat was best for the worms of Toner!

We picked 3 different areas of the yard and plotted them on a map. We had 4 groups and each group had to charm the worms out of the ground.

We stamped, we stomped, we raked the soil and we even sang songs to encourage the worms to come out! (I’m sure they particularly liked the rendition of ‘There’s a worm at the bottom of my garden’ and ‘London’s burning’) It was definitely a sight to behold!

Our charming efforts paid off, when Lacey’s team found 2 big, fat juicy worms. Archie and Emily’s team found 2 tiny baby worms each too. The other team couldn’t charm any worms out but we think it’s because of their habitat!

 

The flower bed has lots of damp soil and space so that’s why it had the biggest worms.

The trees weren’t damp so the worms didn’t want to live there.
