Crickets!



We talked about Crickets today at school and we read the story, The Very Quiet Cricket written by Eric  Carle.  Ava created a cricket using play dough!  We learned some interesting facts about crickets today:
1.  They are insects because they have 6 legs and 3 body part; a head, thorax and abdomen.
2.  Males ( we learned that means a boy) are the only crickets that sing.
3.  Males sing by rubbing their front wings together.
4.  Crickets have long back legs so they can jump.
