Worm Composting in the School Garden – Info Posters for the Classroom Visual Guide to Worm Composting for Grades 3–8 🪱🌿 Worm box in the school garden - Compost - Worm bin This set of three info posters provides a clear and age-appropriate introduction to worm composting. Designed for students in grades 3–6, the materials explain how a worm bin works, what can go into it, and how it contributes to sustainable gardening. The posters are ideal for classrooms with a school garden or composting project. They serve as a visual aid to help students understand the composting process and the role of worms in breaking down organic waste. The language is simple, and the illustrations are easy to follow – even for younger learners or multilingual groups. What’s included: Three printable posters (PDF) with clear illustrations and explanations Topics covered: setting up a worm bin, suitable materials for composting, and the benefits of worm composting Suitable for display in the classroom, garden area, or near the compost bin These posters support hands-on learning and can be integrated into science lessons on ecosystems, recycling, or environmental stewardship. I’ve used them in combination with a real worm box project – the students loved checking what the worms were doing and became much more aware of food waste. This resource is available in English and is designed to complement practical activities in the school garden. It’s also a nice visual reminder that even small actions – like feeding worms – can make a difference for the environment. 📍 Best wishes, Heike from Lernfitness Biology teacher (Chemistry teacher, Math teacher) Did You Know?
