SCRIPT FOR LISTENING: GRADE 8 (2016-2017)
 1. Today I’m going to explain how to start a compost heap. First of all you must use only vegetable matter. Don’t use any meat or grain products because this attracts rats.
 2. Find a place in your garden that gets a few hours of sunlight each day. Use a pick or shovels to turn the compost regularly so it gets plenty of air.
 3. The compost also needs moisture, but it will get this from condensation. Cover the heap with a sheet of strong plastic if the weather is very wet.
 4. Keep adding to the pile and after about six months, your compost will be ready to use as fertilizer.
