Learning about insects in Grade 3 has been fun. We explored endlessly painting, crafting, laughing and so much more.

 I’m sure you’ll want to learn what we already know:

An insect has three body parts’
Head, thorax and abdomen
Three pairs of legs, six in all
To fly, jump or crawl
The head has mouth parts well designed
And compound eyes as well.
Antennae sense the world around
They feel, hear and smell.
If it has eight legs and two body parts then an insect it can’t be,
It’s an arachnid, do you see?

Using egg cartons, colour paints and our creative minds, we constructed all our favourite insects. We spent our lessons singing and playing games to learn more about insects.
