Bug Jars
Have you ever filled a jar with leaves, twigs, and dirt and went out searching for bugs for your home? Lightening bugs were always the pets in my family. This shared tradtion was the inspiration for this project. Kindergartners reused materials (cardboard and laminator film) to create their bugs. The students then designed a bug home for their creations. Some went the realistic route while others created an imaginative bug home. For instance, a slide into the lid, landing in a swimming pool!
