To ignite children's curiosity about insects and introduce basic concepts of entomology through engaging, hands-on activities.
Good morning, everyone! Today, we're going to go on a special adventure into the exciting world of bugs! 🌏✨
To kick off our lesson, I have a special surprise for you all! Let’s open the Bug Discovery Box! Inside, we have various objects related to insects, like:
Activity: What Do You See?
Step 1: I will pass around the box. Each of you can pick one item and tell us what you see. Is it big or small? What colours can you spot? Do you think it’s a friendly bug or a scary one?
Step 2: After we share our thoughts, let’s use the magnifying glass to take a closer look! What new details can you find that you didn’t see before?
Now that we've met some of our tiny friends, let's discuss why bugs are so important in our world. Did you know that they help flowers grow, clean the environment, and even provide food for other animals?
Did you know? There are more than one million different species of insects, and some are as tiny as a flea, while others can be as big as a dinner plate!
Now that we are buzzing with excitement, it's time to dive deeper into our entomology journey! Are you ready to become little bug detectives and learn all about the amazing lives of insects? Let’s embark on this adventure together!
Let's sing a fun song about bugs to get our wiggles out before we start our full lesson! 🎶
To the tune of “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star”:
Creepy, crawly, little bugs,
Flying high, and giving hugs.
Bees and ants and butterflies,
Dancing ‘round beneath the skies.
Creepy, crawly, little bugs,
Let’s explore the world of hugs!
Now that we’re all warmed up, who’s excited? Let’s get started! 🦋
Parents, please encourage your children to look for bugs in your backyard or at the park this week and share what they've seen with us next time we meet! Happy exploring! 🐜
