insects need to be available.

the trap and prepare a table on the computer for their findings.
9. Some children may wish to devise other humane ways of catching insects in the soil.
Learning for Life

characteristics of insects and have discussed ways to classify the group. The practical work will give
them opportunity to gather data and record it accurately as well as giving them opportunities to
identify insects.
