waxworm observations
DESCRIPTION
Waxworm Observations. Insects have unique structures, behaviors and basic needs such as food, water, air and waste removal. Insects are all related to each other, yet exhibit variations and complex life cycles. Big Idea:. Guiding Questions. What do insects need to survive? - PowerPoint PPT PresentationTRANSCRIPT

BIG IDEA:Insects have unique structures, behaviors and basic needs such as food, water, air and waste removal. Insects are all related to each other, yet exhibit variations and complex life cycles.

Guiding Questions
• What do insects need to survive?• What are the structures and behaviors of
different types of insects?• How do insects change as they grow?

Background Knowledge:
Scientists at the Jack O’ Connor Education Center would like us to observe waxworms for the next several weeks.
• What do you think will happen to the waxworms during this time?
• Will they grow?• Will they change? • What will they need to live?

Describe your waxworms; what do they look like, how do they behave?

We need to record and keep accurate records in our science notebooks.
