All Bats Do Not Look Alike

MATERIALS NEEDED:

Large pictures of a large variety of bat species

STEPS TO FOLLOW:

one Talk with the children about bats and that they are the only mammals that can fly.

two Show the children many pictures of different species of bats.

three Point out to the children how bats differ - that you can tell a bat apart by the following things: some are big, some are small, some have tails, some do not, some have odd faces, and some have odd noses or ears.

four Compare various bat pictures with one another. Ask the children to point out the differences - as many as they can find.

five Place many of the pictures of the bats on a bulletin board and label with their names.
