National Taiwan Science Education Center- insect class 科學教育館半日遊-昆蟲課

We have been teaching the insect lesson for few weeks now,  We finally had a chance to bring the children to the National Taiwan Science Education Center in Taipei. We wanted to let the kids have a great experience. It was cool, there was a place for little kids to play different games like with big blocks or puzzles, most games were for training your kids to be smart.

Then we went to the insect area, There were a lot of insect pictures. Also got to see some candy that was made with insects. We also saw some real insects in display cases, you could really see the detail.This really helped my kids to understand insects.

In the  Science Education Center, they also had a lot or different exhibits, each one different. Things like life science, chemistry, mathematics, and earth science. Some were too difficult for the kids, but we still had a good time.

已經花好幾個星期跟小孩上昆蟲課了，終於找到一個機會可以帶小孩去國立台灣教育科學館。剛好七樓有一個特別的昆蟲展，正符合我們課程的需要，可以帶小孩去課外教學一下。

我們先到兒童益智探索館，這裡很適合小孩去玩，大部份遊戲可以讓小孩手腦並用，一歲多小孩就可以進去好好的享受了，因為我們是非假日去，而且一開門就進去，所以沒有甚麼人，小孩真是玩得很開心。接著我們就上七樓去參觀昆蟲展，裡面真是各類昆蟲都有，很多相片、標本，跟展示活生生的昆蟲。甚至可以看成蛹的蝴蝶。還有善於保護自己的昆蟲。另外還有看似美味但是你可能不敢吃的昆蟲糖果。光在這裡就可耗上一段時間。

接下來我們去常設館的3樓到6樓，像是生命科學展、物質科學展及人體介紹，地球環境介紹..等。有些對小孩來說似乎很困難，但是也可讓他們加深印象，將來有機會談到這些課程時候，或許幫助小孩可以更快進入狀況。

雖然我們只花了半天時間去逛，但是收穫也不少，滿充實。
