ECC Wk 1 Day 5 (and a lil of Day 4)

Geography cards for our Geography Boxes. The older 2 did 2 cards each, and Skylar just did one. I drew the picture of the continental shelf for them....


Suppose to look like the picture below....meh....good enough =)

Below is us gathering dirt for our worm niches. I went a little loco in el heado and decided to have each girl make one, had NO idea how hard it would be to fine a sufficient amount of worms for each jar...

Doing the sand layer....


The finished niches

All covered up to simulate the darkness they are used to in the ground...

I took this one out of the 'covering' after it had been on for a few minutes. If you click on it to enlarge, you will see a worm trying to escape. Good luck, little buddy.

  7. We're starting ECC the first week of August also. I love seeing the pictures and reading about your ECC days. I'll have to remember to just do one jar and not one for each girl. Good tip! I look forward to following your year. :)
