​As the children listened to a reading of Waiting for Wings,by Lois Ehlert, they focused their attention on the symmetry of a butterfly’s wings.  They enjoyed painting large symmetrical butterfly wings and are looking forward to wearing them when they release the butterflies in the garden on the backfield. Enthusiasm for insects still resonates throughout Pre-K.  The children heard books about beetles, fireflies, crickets, dragonflies and other insects. The Incredible World of Insects, a segment from Discovery Education’s website (discoveryed.com), enhanced the children’s understanding of these insects.The video clip introduced the children to insects’ common anatomical features, how they catch prey and use color and camouflage to protect themselves, and their use of different body parts to hear, see, smell and feel.
