First and second grades furthered their knowledge of the Madagascar Hissing Cockroach today by learning a little more about its habitat and behaviors. Last week we were able to observe and hold the animals if we wanted to! This week, we observed differences between the nymphs and adults and also recorded special adaptations and all the behaviors we noted as we watched our own MHC in class. We located the head, thorax and abdomen and any special variations some of our species had. After we finished our scientific observations, we used the Multiple Perspectives icon of depth and complexity to imagine ourselves as MHC and what we would do, dislike, wonder, and want people to know about us. Imagining ourselves as MHCs, we drew pictures of how humans see us and how we see ourselves. Some of us drew ourselves with a mohawk or wearing sports gear!
