Classroom Item - Room 8

Priscilla Thatcher —

Room 8 has been exploring how insects and other living things share resources in their environment to survive and thrive. Today our learning took us outside to check out the environments within our school where insects could be found.

Looking and thinking like scientists, we made connections between these insects and the other living things who share their homes - including us! We saw how the monarch butterflies are making chrysalises under our eating benches where it is sheltered, and how cockroaches and ants eat bird poop that can drop around the school, helping to keep our grounds tidy!
