91592X: Mosquito Bite Mosquito Bite
By Alexandra Siy & Dennis Kunkel / Charlesbridge Publishing

As children play hide-and-seek on a hot summer night, a mosquito, Culex, hides and seeks as well. She must find food--blood--to nourish the eggs in her body. Black-and-white photos relate the children's hide-and-seek story line, while astonishing colorized photographs taken with an electron microscope give close-up views of Culexand her world. Recommended for ages 7 and up.

Bible Verse Copywork
This is a bible verse copywork sheet from Luke
22:20.  Talk with children about the new covenant
that was sealed with Jesus's blood, how he shed
his blood to cover our sins.  You can also talk with
them about Communion, and how he calls us to
remember him.
This page is full of Free Resources you can use for
making your Mosquito Lapbook.  I've also included
custom Minibooks that we made for our Mosquito
Lapbook. For our Mosquito Lapbook we wanted to
learn a few different things about butterflies.  You
can come up with your own objectives for the study,
but here are a couple of ideas....
  • Where do Mosquito's live?
  • Why do Mosquitos's drink blood?
  • Why are Mosquito's good for our
    world.....Why are they bad?
  • How can we keep ourselves
    protected?
Mosquito Label Worksheet
This is a worksheet for
children who are ready to work
on handwriting skills to label
the different body parts of a
butterfly.  For younger children,
write the different parts on a
strip of paper and help them
match them to the right spot.
Life Cycle of a Mosquito
This is a printable wheel for
the Life Cycle of a Butterfly.  
Older children can draw the
pictures on the wheel, and
write the life cycle stage on the
wedge, and  younger children
can color and glue the
provided pictures in the right
spot to make the wheel.
Stop the Itch!
This is a little minibook
where children can write
down different techniques for
stopping the itch from a
mosquito bite.  On the
bottom is the Bible Verse
from Luke 22:20.  Talk with
children how Jesus, when
he died on the cross, he
shed his blood in a new
covenant so that we may be
forgiven from our sins.
Mosquito Survival Book
This is an adorable book your children can go through
and fill out, drawing pictures, completing the scene and
keeping track of mosquito facts.  The theme throughout
is mosquito safety, preventative and caring.

Mosquito Mask
We made these adorable Mosquito Masks for a
Mosquito Craft.  I cut out the face shapes from a
paper plate, making holes for the eyes and
mouth.  The children used water colors to paint
them (taking guide from the colorful pictures in
the above Mosquito books) and we taped a
flexi-straw into the mouthpart.  We used pipe
cleaners for the antenaes and  then of course I
just couldn't resist and we brought out some
"Blood" (aka: Fruit Punch) for them to slurp up
with their Mosquito Masks!  This photos going
into the scrapbook for sure!
