We at M.C.Knoll School are itching to get started to learn about biodiversity and the Malaise Trap Program. Here are a few things we will be doing this week…

1) Watch the classroom video found in the Course Materials section(biodiversity, DNA barcoding, Malaise trap)

2) Brainstorm and research- What insects do we already know that visit our playground? What do we know about these specimens? What can we find out?

3) Start creating questions for the Malaise Trap team to answer (then send in through email) example. Has there been a Malaise Trap set up near Yorkton, Saskatchewan in the past?

4) Following the School Malaise Trap program Twitter feeds

What are you doing? We would love to get ideas from you.
