Insect Fun!

We have been doing some really fun things for the past couple weeks!!  So fun that I have not been a very good blogger these days.  This time of the year is always so busy...but always fun!  Here is a random post of some of our FUN!  I used Deanna Jumps Insect Unit to help guide our learning!!
Create and Graph an Insect
It is amazing how creative they can be!!

After they created their insect they had to graph the different pattern blocks they used.  I forgot to snap a pic of the response sheet... :(
Creepy or Cool
We took a poll and practiced using tally marks when we asked our friends if they thought insects were cool or creepy! :)

We have made some really cute insects in this unit!  Here are the Dragonflies we made.  They are having a good time flying in our room!! :)

We have also been writing about the different insects we are learning about!  We created our Praying Mantis' today after we learned and wrote about them the day before!

Tomorrow we are entertaining our Mom's for a bit for Muffins with Moms!!  The kids are really excited!  I really want the moms and kids to do something together sooooo....besides eating muffins... they are going to  complete a Bubble Map about Praying Mantis' together!! :)  I created one for them to do tomorrow!  You can find it HERE! :)
