Pupils needing extra support

Should have the Resource: Earthworms read to them before the lesson; should be responsible for reading captions and labels when reading the fact sheet with a partner.

Pupils working at greater depth

Should return to the questions written on whiteboards and write the answers after reading the Resource: Earthworms; should be encouraged to give reasons for their predictions about the wormery (for example, I think the worms will mix the sand and soil up because worms burrow and create lots of tunnels).
