That's the exact process we used to gather bugs for Kanyon's 2nd grade Insect Collection that was due in October. Thankfully, we've done this project before, so we knew what to expect. And since we now have 3 experienced bug catchers in the family, guess who helped Kanyon find all the bugs for his collection?!! I was super happy that his older brothers volunteered to help him! Jonah and Micah were great bug catchers, and Kanyon was so happy to have people interested in joining him on the insect-hunt! I only had to help him one day, when we put it all together on the display board. Kanyon typed up all the insect labels himself, cut them out, and glued them onto the board. I used the cricut machine to make large cut-out bug shapes and his name, and then carefully pinned all the insects onto the board for him. Then the final part of the project was writing about the insects he caught, which he completed on his own. It was a fairly simple project this time--unlike last time when we were doing two collections at the same time when the twins were in 2nd grade! (click here to see TWINS and AMMONS bug projects)
He was very proud of his completed project, and he earned a grade of 100% on it from his teacher.
