Group presentation (30 minutes) Students are seated in our presentation area and receive a presentation about some of the bugs in the museum, have an opportunity to hold a bug and learn about entomology.

Independent exercise (20 minutes) Your class becomes Junior Entomologists! Observe the bugs in their habitats, and record ‘data’ on observation sheets just like scientists.  Bug Lab staff assists your class with their observation sheets.  Sheets are age appropriate.
