Yikes...Bugs!

My school has an awesome science room where I take the first grade students daily for 6 weeks on a rotation with second grade.  We just finished up a 6 week unit involving habitats.  For this unit, we learned that organisms were living things and created habitats for them to live in.  We put together a terrarium which housed woodland plants and animals and an aquarium for freshwater plants and animals.  The aquarium was not so bad...we had guppies and snails living in it.  The terrarium was another story!  I had to order bess beetles and pill bugs to become a part of it.  I was obviously not a fan of this!  The things we do for our students...


Enjoy the pictures!
