Insects

What's the best way to understand a bug? Look at it carefully. Consider the parts of a bug. Six legs, eyes, abdomen, antennae, wings (or not), spiracles, color to hide (or not). Study models and pictures and construct your own bug to understand the names and purposes of the parts. 

Teachers can choose one bug for all to make, or choose for a mix and each student builds a different one. The choices are Bee, Butterfly, Ant, or Mosquito
