Insects & Invertebrates

Description:

Is a bug an insect? Is a spider a bug? Let Chewonki bring the world of arthropods—insects and their relatives—into the classroom.

Using models, costumes, and live specimens, we explain the unique characteristics of four major groups of arthropods. Our live specimens will introduce you to some of the fascinating adaptations essential for survival, such as mimicry, camouflage, armor, and the use of venom.
