PRETTY WATER PUBLIC SCHOOL

Hola, 

Our theme this week is “Insects”. 

We will be learning about ants, dragonflies, and many other insects.

Our class will study the fascinating life cycle of butterflies and the important role bees play in pollination and making honey. 

We will learn how many body parts and legs insects have and what they eat.

 Our letter is “I”. 

We will also talk about iguanas because they are awesome and start with the letter “I”.

Iguanas are reptiles and most species of this lizard live in the Americas.

They are often seen sunning themselves on branches overhanging water.

If disturbed, they plunge into the water.

Iguanas eat leaves, fruits, insects, small mammals, and birds.

The marine iguana of the Galápagos Islands eats seaweed.
