Did You Know?… Insect Game• Introduction
• During this game you will answer questions about insects. I am a first grade teacher and we play this game during the spring. We take a nature/discover walk to find different insects. We examine them in their own habitat and then collect a few. We then ask questions, that lead to more questions, we start an insect board with facts, misconceptions, and what we have learned.
