What is an Insect?
An insect is an arthropodAn arthropod is an animal that does not
have a back bone!Instead of having bones inside, there
bones are on the outsideThere bodies are hard on the outside, it
would be like wearing knight armor There hard bodies are called
Exoskeletons
What makes it an insect? An insect has 6 legs Insects have 2 antennae (that is how
they smell) Insects have 2 eyes Insects breathe from tiny wholes along
their bodies, these are called spiracles Some insects have wings Insects have three separate body parts a head, a thorax, and an abdomen

InsectsThere are approximately 5,000 dragonfly species, 2,000 praying mantis, 20,000 grasshopper, 170,000 butterfly and moth, 120,000 fly, 82,000 true bug, 350,000 beetle, and 110,000 bee and ant species that have been discovered to this date, for a total of more than 925,000 species. It is estimated that there could be as many as 15-30 million species of insects that have yet to be discovered by science. The scientific study of insects is also known as entomology.

INSECTS
Congratulations You have learned what an insect is. Keep your eyes open they are everywhere!
Welcome TeachersThis presentation is designed for your
students to understand the characteristics that make up an insect. Students will learn key words and be able to distinguish which animals are insects and which animals are not.

Strand 4: Life ScienceLife Science expands students’ biological understanding of life by focusing on the characteristics of living things, the diversity of life, and how organisms and populations change over time in terms of biological adaptation and genetics. This understanding includes the relationship of structures to their functions and life cycles, interrelationships of matter and energy in living organisms, and the interactions of living organisms with their environment. Concept 1: Characteristics of OrganismsUnderstand that basic structures in plants and animals serve a function. PO 2. Compare the following observable features of living things:movement – legs, wingsprotection – skin, feathers, tree barkrespiration – lungs, gillssupport – plant stems, tree trunks PO 3. Identify observable similarities and differences (e.g., number of legs, body coverings, size) between/among different groups of animals.
Technology Standards http://www.ade.state.az.us/standards/contentstandards.aspSTANDARD 6: TECHNOLOGY AS A TOOL FOR PROBLEM SOLVING ANDDECISION-MAKINGStudents use technology to make and support decisions in the process of solving real-worldproblems. • 6T-F1. Use technology resources for problem solving, self-directed learning andextended learning activitiesPO 1. Based on a class-defined problem, use technology to:a) collect datab) interpret datac) express a solution to the problemPO 2. Based on a problem selected by the student, use technology to:a) collect datab) interpret datac) express a solution to the problem
