We're Going on a Bug Hunt — STJ on the Move

Kindergarten wrapped up their unit on insects by going on a bug hunt around campus! Students carefully captured different insects to examine in their own bug catchers. They had a crawlin’ good time!

Did you know:

Insects are invertebrates, meaning they don’t have bones. Rather, they have a hard exoskeleton, or shell, on the outside of their bodies.

All insects have three parts: the head, the thorax, and the abdomen.
Insects have two antennae.
Insects have six legs.
Spiders are not insects (they have eight legs and belong to the arachnid family).
All insects hatch from eggs. The babies are called larva.
