Worm Dissection Prep

In science class today, our teacher showed us how to dissect a worm.  We are going to be dissecting the worm tomorrow, but she just wanted us to be prepared.  It was kind of gross.  There wasn't any blood, but you could see all of the worm's insides and stuff.  I know most of the parts of the earthworm, so I will be able to tell what I am actually dissecting.  Did you know that an earthworm's brain is smaller than the size of a flea?  I guess you don't need to know much if you live in the dirt.  (:
