Step into the extraordinary world of insects with this Types of Insect Legs resin set - an exciting way for learners to explore the many ways insects move, climb, dig and jump. Each resin block features a real insect leg type preserved in crystal-clear resin, showcasing specialised structures such as digging legs, jumping legs and grasping legs. Learners can closely examine the shape, joints and textures that help insects survive in their environments. Perfect for science corners, movement investigations or nature studies, this set makes entomology engaging, visual and wonderfully hands-on. Why this product is beneficial Supports understanding of insect adaptations by showing how leg types relate to movement and behaviour. Encourages detailed observation as learners compare leg shapes, sizes and joint functions. Builds scientific vocabulary through discussion of jumping legs, digging legs, grasping legs and more. Strengthens classification and reasoning by grouping insects based on leg type and function. Classroom & play activity ideas Provide magnifiers and invite learners to sketch different insect legs, labelling joints and special structures. Create a movement activity where learners mimic the action of various leg types - digging, jumping or grasping. Compare the leg types in the resin set with photos or models of whole insects to match legs to species. Start a prediction activity where learners guess which environment each leg type is best suited for.
