The tundra region is the coldest biome of the world. This region is treeless. Some vegetation like lichens, mosses and shrubs grows there. The winters are long and severely cold and the summers are cool. The common animals seen here are the reindeer, polar bear, musk ox, and Arctic hare.

# data[].attributes.body
Provide maker supplies for students to make the foot of a reindeer, polar bear, musk ox, artic hair. The challenge is to make it to scale. Students will take their creations outside to put the footprints in the snow.

Each student will be given one desert animal in the world to focus on. They will do some quick research to share information on that animal from a provided article via a green screen video with a desert in the background.

We have exciting options for remote & in-class learning.

Looking for an interactive experience that brings science to your classroom or school?

Women in Science, STEM, stories from the field and live animals.... see bugs in a whole new way.
Check out our workshop options below!

Teaching & Training

We offer training workshops for aspiring and veteran outreach professionals (we recently taught a cohort of NSF-funded graduate students at the University of California Riverside) and professional development sessions for docents, educational volunteers, science communicators.

We are faculty with Amazon Workshops' Educator Academy, a 10-day intensive Continuing Education program in the Peruvian Amazon for K-16 teachers. We help producers and media companies make sure they have proper insects information and, in some cases, help people with insect identification.

Speaking

We love to spread our message to audiences large and small. We teach about insects & spiders, but we speak about bravery, empowerment, overcoming prejudice and educational potential using bugs as our vehicle! It is our passion.

Together, Jessica and Kristie have given Keynote addresses for the National Ag Science Center and National Ag in the Classroom and spoken at numerous conferences, meetings and symposia. Kristie has given Keynote addresses for the L.T. Jordan Institute of International Awareness on her work in Kenya as a Fellow of the Institute and the Undergraduate Entomological Society at Texas A&M University on how to succeed as a student transitioning to the real world.

Pre-made cards with animals of the savanna. Students wear the card around their neck and toss the string around the circle to show the web of energy movement. Discussion happens when one chain gets "cut" or removed.
