These resources for Kinder, Prep to Year 2 students focus on insects, spiders and other ‘minibeasts’. They are designed to enhance an excursion to the Bugs Alive! exhibition or the Children’s Gallery at Melbourne Museum, with information about bugs and ideas for a variety of learning experiences. The study of insects and spiders has curriculum links to Science, The Arts and Interpersonal Development.
The kit consists of PDF files providing background information about insects, spiders and other ‘minibeasts', and student activities to do at home or in the classroom
