What We Learned About Insects

We learned a lot about insects in second grade.  We would like to share our knowledge.  We all made tree maps to organize our writing.  We are also learning how to write main idea, details, and an ending sentence.

This tree map is about insect body parts.  Some insects have 4 or 2 wings on their body.  Insects might have antennas and they might not.  All insects have 6 legs on their body.  Insect body parts are: head, thorax, and abdomen.  Insects are all not the same.  Some have spots, stripes, even patterns!
