Mini Beasts invade Room 15






Last week as part of our Inquiry on Mini Beasts Jacdun's dad brought some of his little friends to our class. He had a frog, water boatmen, bloodworms, fly lavae, baby flies (dinner for the frog) and a cicada. He also had some toys. One was a wind up creeping caterpillar and the other one was a solar powered insect. We went outside and held the insect in the shade. It didn't move until we put it into the sunlight. To finish off we got to explore Mr Fawcett's insect collection. They were in resin so we looked very carefullyand were able to classify them into insects, arachnids, centipedes and millipedes. We are on the job discovery scientists.
