In taxonomy, the word bugs refers to a specific group of insects. But to most kids, the word simply conjures up images of creepy, crawly, hands-on fun. Thus, they are a great choice for a topic of study in an inquiry-based science classroom even though these creatures can be quite different in terms of biology.
We will be exploring earthworms and a variety of larva-stage insects such as mealworms, waxworms and hornworms. We can observe their behavior and diets as well as the fascinating structural changes they experience throughout their life cycles.
