12. ELA STUDENT WORK ACTIVITIES (1 0F 5) Students will cut and paste the words to create sentences from prior readings.
13. ELA STUDENT WORK ACTIVITIES (2 0F 5) "UG" and "UT" Word Family Wheels The word family wheel would be cut and placed on card stock with a fastener used to turn the wheel. After the wheel is assembled the word family "ug" is placed by the letter "b". The wheel is turned to make a new word. The children would be required to say the new word.
14. ELA STUDENT WORK ACTIVITIES (3 0F 5) After reading “From Caterpillar To Butterfly” , students create a four page booklet showing the stages of growth in illustrations. They will use complete sentences, as they are able.
15. ELA STUDENT WORK ACTIVITIES (4 0F 5) Venn Diagram Using the venn diagram, students will compare two insects. In the outer circles, they will write things about them that are different. In the center circle, they will write things that are alike. On the lines below they will summarize the differences and similarities
16. ELA STUDENT WORK ACTIVITIES (5 OF 5) Match the words with the corresponding insect
17. MATH LEARNING STANDARD Standard 1: Analysis, Inquiry, and Design Students will use mathematical analysis, scientific inquiry, and engineering design, as appropriate, to pose questions, seek answers, and develop solutions.
18. MATH STUDENT WORK ACTIVITIES (1 OF 4) Students will count the spots on each ladybug and match the ladybug to the corresponding flower.
22. SCIENCE LEARNING STANDARD Standard 1: Analysis, Inquiry, and Design The central purpose of scientific inquiry is to develop explanations of natural phenomena in a continuing, creative process.
23. SCIENCE STUDENT ACTIVITIES (1 OF 4) Insect Anatomy Insects have a lightweight, but strong exterior (outside) skeleton called an exoskeleton. Their muscles and organs are on the inside. This multi-layered exoskeleton protects the insect from the environment and natural enemies. The exoskeleton also has many sense organs for sensing light, pressure, sound, temperature, wind, and smells. Sense organs may be located almost anywhere on the insect body, not just on the head.
24. SCIENCE STUDENT ACTIVITIES (2 OF 4) Students will develop an understanding of life cycles of insects. They will investigate common characteristics of insects and the effect they have on their environment, and they will explore ways that social insects are different from other insects.
25. SCIENCE STUDENT ACTIVITIES (3 OF 4) Students learn about the insect life cycle. This short video shows the life cycle of a butterfly. Students will view pictures of the different stages as well as receive a description of each stage. At the end there is a short sequencing activity for the students to test what they just learned. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-uu9lUTf04g
27. SOCIAL STUDIES LEARNING STANDARD Standard 3: Geography Students apply geographic knowledge and skills (e.g., location, place, human/environment interactions, movement, and regions).
28. SOCIAL STUDIES STUDENT ACTIVITIES (1 OF 4) BUTTERFLY FARM: Students will go on a field trip to a Butterfly Farm. Teacher will read books about butterflies to the class before you go to the Farm. When returning to the classroom after the trip children will be asked for their observations about the butterflies that they have seen. They will write a journal about the findings on the butterflies, their habitats, eating habits, etc.
29. SOCIAL STUDIES STUDENT ACTIVITIES (2 OF 4) BEE HIVES: The class will do a study on bee hives and how the different type of bees of the hive help to make the honey. Teacher will write up the findings on the blackboard so that the children can copy the words in a booklet made from large lined paper. Students will be asked to make a picture of a bee and a hive to put on as a cover.
30. SOCIAL STUDIES STUDENT ACTIVITIES (3 OF 4) JUMPING FLEAS: Students will do a study on fleas. Fleas are wingless, but when it jumps it is able to launch itself into space with almost 20 times the acceleration of an Apollo moon rocket. (At rest, a flea's rear legs are like coiled-up springs. These "springs" are set off by tiny elastic structures positioned above them making the flea shoot forward). Students are sure to find this interesting and fun!
33. ART LEARNING STANDARD Standard 2: Knowing and Using Arts Materials and Resources Students will be knowledgeable about and make use of the materials and resources available for participation in the arts in various roles.
34. THE ARTS STUDENT ACTIVITIES (1 OF 3) LADYBUG CRAFT: Materials for the Craft: Paper plate, black paint and brush, fasteners, wing template and black marker. Instructions for the Craft 1. Paint a paper plate black. 2. Paint or color the wings red Red construction paper can also be used. 3. Use fasteners to attach the wings. The children can now move them back and forth. 5. Add black spots to the wings and wiggly eyes to the body to complete the craft.
35. THE ARTS STUDENT ACTIVITIES (2 OF 3) Butterflies Craft: Instructions for the Craft 1. Photocopy butterfly wings on card stock paper. 2. Children color or paint the wings 3. Paint and glue on egg carton cups 4. Complete by adding facial features
36. THE ARTS STUDENT ACTIVITIES (3 OF 3) Caterpillar Craft Instructions 1. Draw circles on colored paper (about 12 per child). They could also traced on construction paper. 2. Hole-punch the circles in the middle. Have the children push the circles along a pipe cleaner in a color pattern 3. Secure the ends so they do not fall off
37. K-W-L CHART K-W-L Chart Students will be asked what they already know about insects, and what they would like to know. Student’s input will be organized on a K-W-L chart worksheet. A poster will be displayed with student questions on the wall to use as a reference throughout the course of the project. Students will be reminded of the questions of the day and will be invited on a bug field trip to discover answers to some of their questions.

40. REFLECTION Although I am not pursuing a career as an educator, and this assignment was difficult for me, the experience of creating this learning unit was fulfilling. It gave me the opportunity to gain hands on experience and idea of how teachers prepare their lessons. This learning experience can help students learn that all bugs are not insects. It will give them an understanding of the differences and similarities that animals have with human and how they form their own communities. I think both English speaking students as well as LEP students can benefit from this unit as it can be taught in both English and Spanish
