Later in the day we created more insects during math work places. Using some imagination but knowing that insects have 3 body parts and six legs, we created our own insects. Some friends also played bugs on board (similar to tic tac toe but using coordinates and insects!
We even had insect centers this afternoon. All friends enjoyed, "ants on a log" and then explored with a variety of materials. Insect stamps, insect crayon rubbings, insect bingo, "how to draw" insects, 3-D insect observing, and reading insect books. What an insect filled day! INQUIRE with your child what they chose to do at centers, who they worked with, and what kind of insects they found in Harrison field. If you're lucky, maybe they'll share their recipe for "ants on a log."
