Waste and Our World

This new science unit isn't just about garbage!  We are also learning about nature's way of getting rid of its waste.  We have learned how decomposers such as Isopods (woodlouse, pillbug) are used in nature and about mold and how it helps to break down decaying matter.   Thank you to C. who brought in some REAL isopods she found!  The whole class has been volunteering to bring some in.  I think we're good for now!  We are also observing a few foods to see how they grow mold over the next few weeks!
