drawing like a scientist

Armed with magnifying glasses and our scientist perspectives, the children in the class worked on creating realistic drawing of insects.

We explored a powerpoint on insect to help us understand some of the criteria that makes an insect, an insect.

We learned that they all have three body parts: head, thorax and abdomen.
Insects have 6 legs
Insects have eyes
Most insects have antennae to help them sense their environment

Next week will will do a peer evaluation and use that information to help use improve our pictures.
