Science of Massachusetts: Habitats: Where the Minibeasts Are (K-2)
In this unit we will explore the habitats of different types of "minibeasts", or macroinvertebrates, like worms, pill bugs, insects, spiders, and more. Students will engage in outdoor investigations to find out where minibeast live. Students will document their observations in field journals as they explore different habitats in their schoolyard and use models to explain how these habitats may or may not support the needs of invertebrates. Finally, students will apply their understanding and engineer a minibeast habitat.
