Ants ants ants!

 

As part of our IPC unit, Flowers and insects, we are now focusing on the amazing ant! We started by setting up an ant farm, and the children made predictions about what they think we will observe happening. The children shared what they already know about ants and thought about what they would like to find out. That has got us started on a little research project! As we read together in the lower primary class, the students have been writing down any tricky words. We then discuss the tricky words and use the context and glossary to find out the meaning. It is a lot of fun to be reading about and watching ants at the same time.
