Grade Three Art

Third graders in Mrs. Paluch's and Miss Ferrante's class first noticed the pesky invaders during an art and science enrichment period with Mrs. Levesque.  The creatures were unlike anything the teachers had ever seen before.

Judging by the appearance of head, thorax, and abdomen, along with six legs, wings, and two antennae, a very observant student suggested that the creatures must be insects.

Pest control experts later confirmed the identification, but admitted that they were not familiar with this particular order, or family, of insects.  They went on to state that the insects could not have entered through the window screens and concluded that the infestation must have been "created" within the art room!
