Insects are so fascinating and are the most diverse group of animals on earth! There are more species of insects than there are all other species combined. Their numbers are nothing short of remarkable, both in terms of the numbers of individuals as well as the number of species.
Introductory Entomology is a great way to keep the kids engaged in meaningful and fun science activities all summer long! Everything is laid out in a simple and easy to follow manner – older kids will be able to do the lessons on their own!
Insect Lessons for Kids
In this 40-page unit study, students will be introduced to this remarkable subphylum (Hexapoda – a group commonly referred to as hexapods and whose members have six legs) through hands-on activities, real life simulations, and multi-media presentations. The six-week unit incorporates more than 10 entomology lessons for kids and suggested extension activities.
I have to admit that this unit is one of my most favorites. Kids are naturally drawn to insects and have little inhibitions for the six-legged creatures. In this unit study, I outline my favorite lessons and activities for exploring insects with your children or in your classroom.

- Full color overview
