Bug Hunt

This week we learned all about bugs! To help with our research, we went on a bug hunt! We learned how to tell the difference between insects, arachnids, gastropods, and annelids.

After our bug hunt, we recorded our scientific data. We had to look at things like: number of legs, number of body parts, wings, antennae, where we found the bug, and color. Then we drew a picture of it.

We mostly found ants, worms, flies, and beetles. We almost got a dragonfly and Mrs. Main caught a bee. It didn't seem very happy so we let it go! Some of the ants espcaped into the classroom while we were at lunch! But, we managed to find them all for our recording. (we think!) Then we let our bugs go back into their natural habitat.

Overall, it was a great time! We learned a lot!
