βͺβͺ We are also listening to this insect song for kids. β«
If you have time, please let your child listen and sing this at home too. π
We invited Mr. Takeru Naka, an insect specialist in Okinawa.
Our K2 friends are learning about insects. Some of them shared what they have learned so far, like their favorite insects and life cycle of a particular insect.
Then, Mr. Naka gave us a lecture about some insects that are rare or can only be found in OKINAWA. Here are some of them:
After that, we went to the FOREST!!!
It was a mix of catching bugs, insects and other interesting living things in the forest. K1 friends observed many plants along the way, too. At the same time, they asked many questions and learned many things about what they saw there.
Here is a closer look of what we have found in the forest.
They are really interesting. Some of them can be touched because they are safe but a few things are dangerous so our Kinder friends were asked to be careful.
The smile on their faces and the curiosity in their eyes says it all. It was indeed an informative and joyful experience for our young learners π
Lastly, our Kinder friends decided to catch and take care of this pregnant praying mantis π Good job Kinder friends!
After catching and sketching insects + insect mission game, K2 friends’ interest in insects have grown more.
They made their favorite insect using recycled materials. Then, they interviewed each other.
Q: What is your favorite insect?
A: My favorite insect is _________.
We are continuing our activities about insects. We’ll update again next time π
