Engage your students with these colorful Google Slides as they have fun learning about insects and bugs. This Google Classroom resource contains a complete paperless Insect Research Report perfect for Chromebooks, HP Streams, and other devices in a 1:1 classroom.

Use these activities to engage students in a whole class, small group, or independent environment. This resource is also perfect for home school students.

Templates are included to create, develop, write, edit, present, and assess your students’ Insect Research Report. This report (or performance task) is also designed to not only to learn and explain the new information, but answer some higher level thinking questions (Common Core Essential Questions) to apply the knowledge they have learned. Students will do all of their research via the Internet and print media (this is not included in this product). Our product is designed to assess and show what your students have learned and share it with you, their parents, and perhaps the class if you’d like them to present it.

A simple rubric and student checklist is included.
