This domain will introduce students to the largest group of animals on Earth. Students will learn:

The characteristics of insects

The life cycles of insects

How insects can be categorized as solitary or social

How insects are viewed as both helpful & harmful

For example, students will learn how insects are important to the process of pollination and in the production of honey, some cosmetics, and even medicines.
