Theme & Description: Children explore the ways that specific living things relate to the rest of life -- what the earthworm eats, what eats it, what it contributes to the soil, how that helps plants and helps us who grow food in that soil. Concepts come to life through direct experience. Throughout the curriculum, our spiritual connection with all living things is brought out. A closing ritual at the end of each session helps the children internalize their learning, sometimes with a story that summarizes the day's experience.
