Let's go on an insect hunt!
Think of some places near your home where you might be able to find some insects. Try to find at least three different insects and draw a picture of each one.
Before you go too close to an insect, ask your adult helper if it is okay, remember not all insects are friendly. Most insects can move very quickly so once you see an interesting one, you might want to spend some time watching it and then draw it from memory. As you are drawing, you might want to think about these questions:
- Where did you find these insects?
- How would you describe this insect using words?
- How would you describe its body? legs? wings?
- Are there other insects like this one nearby?
- Do you think this insect can carry things? How?
- How do you think this insect protects itself?
- What kind of insect do you think this is?
When you are finished, look at all of your pictures. How are these insects the same? How are they different?
