My Project

In this project we are asking for hands on resources to help us learn as much as we can about insects through stories, observations, games and exploration!

We are asking for insect X-rays to use and observe on the light table.

We would love life cycle cards and real life insect models to help us learn more about their body structure and features! Your donation will help us emerge our little classroom into a science lab full of possibilities and learning. We can bring the facts of insects into our own little world.
