This program, designed for the 2006 SRP in MA, includes a talk and slide show about such "buzzy" creatures as dragonflies, beetles, cicadas, katydids, bees, and crickets that inhabit our back yards and nearby woodland areas.
Learn about insect anatomy & life cycles, camouflage and other adaptations, and interesting insect behaviors.
Mr. Schneider brings a collection of fascinating insects to the show.
After the slide presentation, children will create their very own amazing "bug tee shirts" (heavy cotton shirts are available for $4.00, or kids may bring their own shirts).
