During this month our Kinder 3 & Kinder 4 room children have been very busy learning about bugs & Insects.
Teaching children about bugs and insects is important because it promotes biodiversity appreciation, scientific inquiry, connection with nature, fosters scientific curiosity, and nurtures values of empathy and environmental responsibility.
Children have learnt about the vital role bugs/insects play in ecosystems, food webs, and how these creatures have evolved incredible adaptations to thrive in almost every environment on Earth.
During our Incursion with Wildlifexposure "Creepy Crawlers" the children were able to touch and look at some live insects such as, snails & slugs, centipedes & millipedes, like spiders & scorpions.
We are looking forward to scaffolding their bug/insect curiosity within this term :)
