Bug Club Students Kept Busy

20160824Our National Junior Insect Bug Club students have been thoroughly enjoying their On-Line classes and have been allocated their first assignments for the year.
Students have a segment in their classes called 'Featured Entomologists' where students learn about the work of professional entomologists both in Australia and
overseas.

This week, after learning about the great works of the late myrmecologist Edward O Wilson, students will follow up with their own ant surveys of their own properties.
Each different observed ant species is allocated a number, photographed and plotted on a large 'Property Map' to describe where on the property it was found.

A great way to introduce students to diversity.
