These are suggestions from the Teacher book. If you have any questions leave me a voicemail or email me at easpegren@usd244ks.org. The important thing to remember is your student doesn’t necessarily need to look like a bug; instead, they can be dressed as something that reminds the audience what type of bug they are. For example, a student dressed as a house fly could wear a robe, PJs, slippers, curlers, or wear an apron, etc.
