Bad Bugs In The Garden |
Dahlonegah Students Learn About Good Bugs and Bad Bugs.
On Tuesday Dahlonegah Students learned about good bugs and bad bugs in the garden. The class was held in the outdoor classroom in the garden area. The students first identified the bugs using large plastic bugs and then were able to see live bugs using a magnifying glass. The students learned the difference between organic vegetables and those grown with pesticides to kill bugs. Students were also taught the importance of not picking up bugs that they are unfamiliar with. Mrs. Kimble explained, "If someone picked you up, you might bite, kick and yell to be let go, a bug is the same way, it might sting or bite you because it wants to get away."
A big thank you for our supporters.
