This fun, engaging, 86-page life science book offers lessons and deductive thinking activities targeted for students from PreK to Grade 3. It teaches young students important scientific concepts and terms usually taught well beyond early elementary grades. For this reason, these lessons and activities are not designed for independent student work.

Each lesson includes wonderful photographs, diagrams, and illustrations that are always followed by critical thinking activities to help students understand and apply what they've learned. Many students are so captivated by the fascinating world of insects around them, they enjoy working through the lessons and activities more than once.
