Students enjoy (?) eating insects!

Who’s hungry?! During Ecology class, these adventurous middle school students were pleasantly surprised by the taste of roasted crickets and other bugs. The students tried eating the bugs after participating in a Socratic Seminar about the possibility of replacing beef with insects, in order to mitigate climate change. Some of the students even took some home, perhaps to see if their families would enjoy these tasty snacks too!?

Making connections between the classroom and the real world is at the heart of a Montessori education. In the words of Dr. Montessori, ‘..to establish the relationship between things is to bring knowledge.’
