Cicada posters

The cicada summer chorus is on its last legs and, if we were cicadas, our cicada science work would be the cicada eggs now deposited in the stems of plants for the winter and waiting for a new cycle to begin!  We hope our study has planted a seed in our minds, another layer of understanding insects.

During our study we have been looking at how diagrams are pictures that show informationWe have used the wonderful book by Betty Brownlie called "The Life Cycle of the Cicada".  It is packed full of information and diagrams.  The children have worked on posters to practise organising information.
