My kids were so excited when they saw the box from Insect Lore with our praying mantises in it for our Praying Mantis Unit Study!

I was a little nervous about having a Praying Mantis habitat, but I really enjoyed putting together this fun Praying Mantis Unit Study to go along with our little habitat.

  • At the end of our unit I had each of my kids dictate something they wanted to share about what they learned during their praying mantis unit study.  As they narrated I typed up what they said and printed it out for them to copy onto their Praying Mantis stationary to send to the grandparents. It’s a great way to have them get excited about writing by sharing what they learned with their grandparents.

  • When my kids were little I incorporated a lot more fine motor activities into our daily routine. We needed to add that back in and thankfully I found these adorable weather printables by Wild Olive @molliejohanson I’d printed a while ago. My kids were excited to practice hand stitching with them. Scroll to see my cuties working on these. 👉PS my kids are not that tall they are standing on step stools.👈😊 They may be intended for younger kids but mine enjoyed them! #finemotorskills #finemotoractivity #homeschool
