After Inclusive Montessori adopted composting, they wanted to go and explore the farm and look at the organic way of nurturing animals and plants. The kids, who were about 2-4 years old enjoyed going to the farm and looking at the guys and goats. At first they were scared, but they got used to them pretty quickly. The day after the field trip, I went to the school and taught them about earthworms, a major ingredient in the composting composition. We took live worms and they enjoyed touching it and learning the important parts (head, tail, and clitellum). The next day, I went to the Montessori and educated them on composting with live examples and movies. They got to eat fruits and once they were done, they could throw it in the compost bin with some leaves. Working with kids was a really good experience and I am looking forward to doing it again with the Windsor Montessori.
