Instructional Ideas

  • Use in a unit about insects or the animal kingdom
  • Laminate and use in a science lab or center
  • Have kids pick cards randomly and research some interesting facts about the insect they choose

Classroom Considerations

  • Cards would look best if printed in color
  • Pictures are close-up photographs of insects, which might be a little scary for some learners

Pros

  • Comes with different versions of the cards (one with smaller cards, one with blank cards)

Cons

  • None
