Dear Green Mountain Students and Families,

Our classroom is infested with insects! Don't worry, it is all part of our Science unit. Your child is responsible for the well being of their own mealworms and we have many other insects in our classroom for young entomologists to observe, including walking sticks, crickets, painted lady pupa, and silkworms. Some students are so fascinated with insects that they have brought other creepy crawlies they find while at home.

To find an extension activity for your young entomologist at home, visit this site. www.fossweb.com/modulesK-2/Insects/index.html

Here your child can play an interactive game where they can identify insects. Happy insect hunting!

Mrs. Aldred
