I've been looking forward to this unit as it connects insects to various cultures, religions, and historical events around the world and throughout human history.
Independence day is for people, but I'm thinking about the bugs. Did you know the Declaration of Independence was written with wasp ink? Or that a first lady raised silk moths in the White House? Did you know some fireflies lure others in with their flashing to eat them? Or that mosquitos have six mouth parts? You do now.
