Ants

                        Oh just when I thought the kids were losing their interest in learning about insects, the great outdoors have them coming back for more.

The children have been enjoying reading this book. It gives a very good explanation on the names of the different ants, and how they live together.

 Looking at a slide of ant using a microscope.

Making anthills.

Observing a area within a square outside. Looking for ants or other insects.

                                                                        

Found an ant.

Now we are going to be working on building a ant farm so the children can observe close up how the ants work, and live together.
