Ladybugs
Science - On Wednesday and Thursday we learned about ladybugs. We discussed the lifecycle of a ladybug and learned that they are heroes in the garden, they eat the aphids that are eating the plants. They can eat up to 70 aphids in a day.
Ladybugs are insects (a beetle). Each insect must have six legs, a head, thorax, and abdomen. A ladybug has a special shell that covers the abdomen and wings.
Math - We counted dots on ladybugs and added each side of the ladybug's shell to see how many spots there were all together.
Reading - We continued working on our sight words and sounding out simple words.
Art - We made a ladybug out of cardstock.
