Worm World: Bedding - A Life Science Project for Wormologists
by Madeline Schepper
In this lesson, students conduct an experiment that answers the following driving question: Which type of bedding do red wigglers like better- coconut husk or shredded cardboard?
This lesson allows students to conduct a research experiment, collect, record, analyze, and share their data.
This lesson would be great as a focus during any life science unit and could easily be turned into a class project for gardening engagements.
