Question text
Select the option that describes the type of process skills that were developed
in the scientific activity below.
The Grade 2 teacher, Ms Chetty, asks students to name as many different kinds of insects as
they can think of and list them on the chart paper. Talk about ways they are similar and ways
they are different and where some of the insects might live. Take the students to the
playground and pass out the worksheets. Explain that they are going to hunt for insects and
ask them to name some places they might be able to find insects. Let them take some time
looking for the insects and completing the worksheet. (If insects are scarce, encourage them
to tell everyone when they find one.) Come back to class and compare what was found
outside with the insects listed on the chart paper. Circle any insects that were found and add
any that are missing. Have the students write in their journal about the lesson the next
morning.
