Wednesday, March 13, 2013 -- Insects and Spiders
Insects, spiders and crabs are "joint-footed" with outer exoskeletons! We will learn about arthropod body parts with mirrors that show matching sides called symmetry. Outdoors we will search for where the bugs are and find creative ways to express their shapes and lifestyles through art! Kids can choose from different art media and science stations throughout the day. And more!
