Andrew Turner and Rebecca Troconis study the movements of an earthworm during the S.M.A.R.T. Literacy Garden presentation in November 2007 at L.A. Morgan Elementary School, Galveston.

Children read along with stories related to the garden, including Inch by Inch by Leo Leoni and The Carrot Seed by Ruth Kraus. After they have observed the worms, the children place them gently in the garden.
