Title Insect Life Cycle
Description My class has been learning about the insect life cycle all year. The week of May 17 we will be really focusing on it in our science lessons. The week before we will be talking about animals in general so either week would work. We can do any day except Wednesday. Our science lesson is at 2:30pm to 3:00pm, but we can do a different time if that is better for you. Our lunch is 11:30-12:00 and recess is 2-2:30 so those are the only times we couldn't do. I was able to have a time for Bugscope when I worked at the Houston Arboretum but this is the first time it occurred to me to use it in my class. I have the GT class and I know they will love it. I do have remote and in class students - about half and half at this point. I am okay if we are not able to drive the microscope I just want them to be able to see the insects up close. We have been collecting insects so I will send some. Thank you so much.
