We set up an ant world in our classroom today, with the help of Mrs. Newell's and Mrs. Geraghty's classes. Teacher brought about 25 ants from her garden. We won't be able to add any more ants that we find (unlike in the wormery), because ants from other colonies fight each other, while ants from within one colony look after and care well for each other. We will have to feed them tiny bits of banana and apple
every week, and give them drops of water. We hope they will take walks to our magnifier, so we can examine them well. We think they will be very happy with us, and we look forward to looking at the tunnels they will make through the sand and clay.
