As a PBS LearningMedia Digital Innovator, I get really cool stuff to share with you each week. This week the theme is "Backyard Summer." Each week I will share links and material with you to help you in your lesson planning. Here is the video for the week of July 6:
Do you like slugs, spiders and beetles? In this video from Wild TV, students learn about many different kinds of insects, and gain a healthy reverence for them. They’ll see that some insects crawl like spiders and centipedes, while others fly, walk on water and even flip and “click.”
Students will also learn the names of some interesting-looking insects, like the dobsonfly. They will discover how to be safe around dangerous spiders and how some use escape reflexes, like the click beetle. As they listen and watch closely, students will observe how the speakers in the video feel about the various insects by the way they react to and talk about them. WATCH: http://to.pbs.org/1ICx6Jr
Like what you read? Follow me on Twitter @itibrout. I will share a new link each day. Some will be useful for elementary school teachers, some for higher levels. Enjoy!
