Madagascar Hissing Cockroaches

There HERE!!!!

The cockroaches arrived on Wednesday and were put into their habitat on Thursday morning. Most of the students have been able to see them. A few think they are awesome and few are totally creeped out. As a species they are quite docile and yet quite large. They can grow to be 3 inches long. During the day they will remain hidden as they prefer dark places. 

The cockroaches were brought in for the 7th grade life science curriculum. These students will get a chance to learn more about them during an investigation. This will take place towards the end of the second trimester.

Ask your student what they think about them.
