A for an Ant! ( Lapbook + Activities)

Bismillah ,

Assalam u alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh ,

This week Subhana discovered an ant crawling along here and there in our room. She got excited that an insect she has seen from her own very eyes. So I decided to unit study lapbook with her on the topic of ANTS. We also read some books too related to ants.

We also saw a slide show presentation all about ants. Subhana got amazed that how tiny that creature is.
mashAllah she can tell the types of ants too.

I also bought a Bug Viewer for her from the nearby store Fanateer. It really helped her to see ants with her vivid eyes. She was able to view her 6 legs and antennae too with other body parts.

We also pondered on the ayat in the Quran related to ants in Surah Naml.




Here are the pictures:
