Students learn the dragonfly life cycle by discussing “Are you a Dragonfly?” or “The Secret Life of Streams,” then create a dragonfly craft using a clothes pin body, colorful paper, pipe cleaner, and ribbon. A caddisfly activity uses “The Secret Life of Streams” to explore aquatic insect traits, Rocky’s case-building, and student-made cases from rocks and sticks, aligned to SKL2. It also includes a free coloring resource, Bugs Don’t Bug Me!, featuring coloring pages, matching, maze, and word find.","Kindergarten  \nDragonfly Activity – We start the activity by reading “Are you a Dragonfly?” or “The Secret Life of Streams”. The books explain the dragonfly lifecycle, how the dragonfly starts its life off in the water and ends it with a set of beautiful wings. Then students make a dragonfly craft with a clothes pin body, colorful paper, pipe cleaner and ribbon. This is a great educational activity and fun for all. Standards: SKL2  \nCaddisfly Activity-Students are read the book “The Secret Life of Streams” by Lynell Marie Garfield. The book teaches about the characteristics and lifecycles of mayflies, stoneflies, caddisflies, dragonflies, dobsonflies and midgeflies in a fun story. Then we focus in on Rocky the case building caddisfly and show the students pictures of different cases made by caddisflies. Then students create their own unique case out of rocks, sticks and other craft items. Standards: SKL2  \nA great way to teach/reinforce lessons on insects that start their life off in the water and transform into a winged insect (such as the dragonfly) is by the use of this resource:  \n[http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/publication/NR_WQ_Edu_2005-01.pdf](http://extension.usu.edu/files/publications/publication/NR_WQ_Edu_2005-01.pdf)  \nIt is a free downloadable coloring book called Bugs Don’t Bug Me! It has coloring pages, match adults to babies, a maze and word find.","cbCainJFTKby7Qmy","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainJFTKby7Qmy","pdf",47444,2,1,"English","en",105,"# Dragonfly Activity\n## Story Reading and Discussion\n## Craft Materials and Steps\n# Caddisfly Activity\n## Focus Story and Case-Building\n## Student-Created Caddisfly Cases\n# Standards\n## SKL2\n# Additional Teaching Resource\n## Bugs Don’t Bug Me!
