Second Grade

We have recently begun our Science Unit on Entomology, or the study of insects. Upon completion students will be able to describe the body parts of an insect, define metamorphosis, describe some of the harm insects can cause, and describe some of the benefits that insects provide for nature and humans. We will answer the questions of how does the scientific classification of living things apply to science and how have insects survived in such a wide variety of climates and environments? Students will research an insect and create a book about their insects, some of this will need to be completed at home.
