One of our science explorations this year will be to learn about small animals that crawl and fly. This includes, but is not limited to, insects, arachnids, worms, snakes, and other animals. To introduce the topic we have been searching through text based materials to learn facts about insects, and have have been classifying what we have learned. Recently we also watched this Bill Nye the Science Guy video. The students asked that a link be posted on our blog so they could view the video again. After we learned about the different parts of the insect, we tried to draw a common insect, the ant. Using the website Art for Kids Hub, we were able to each draw and shade our own ant, and scientifically label them. Students asked if the video could be posted here so that they could practice their art skills. Enjoy! Comments are closed.
