1st Graders Meet the Mealworms!

First grade is now exploring the world of insects!  They have observed the mealworms up close and noticed that they have three pairs of legs towards the front of it's body, antenna and strips (body segments).  They are now ready to create a habitat and care for their insects!  They are curious to see how they will grow and what will happen!

The mealworms can be hard to pick up!

The pencils act as barriers for the fast moving mealworms!

The mealworms live in and eat oats.
