I will play three sounds of insects. Listen and guess what the insects are.
What are the insects you have heard?
I brought something for you. Do you want to see it? <show the bottle>
What is this? What can you see inside the bottle?
Good. Grasshopper and ladybird are insects. Today, we are going to learn
about insects and the parts of the body of an insect.

Look at the picture. What is this? This is a bee.

Okay, now say after me. What is this? This is a bee.
What is this? This is a mosquito.
What is this? This is a grasshopper.
Do you know the body part of a bee?
This is the head. This is the eye. This is the wing. This is the leg.
Now, everyone! Repeat after me.
What is this? <point at the bee>
Does it have head? Yes, it has head.
Does it have eyes? Yes, it has two eyes.
Does it have wings? Yes, it has wings.
Does it have legs? Yes, it has six legs.
<repeat with the other four insects>
Now, where do these insects live? They live around us. So, what should we do
with them? Can we kill the grasshopper? Can we pull out their legs? Can we
harm them if they do not harm us first?
No, you cannot. They are Gods creatures too. So, we must respect them. We
cannot harm them if they do not harm us.
