Overview
This is a simple explanatory text describing how a praying mantis hunts, patiently waiting and then striking suddenly. The stunning photographs show every detail of the action and of the anatomy of the mantis. The labeled diagram at the back of the book encourages students to refer back to the photographs.
Purpose
Students could read this book as part of a study of small creatures or the hunting method of the praying mantis. There is also scope to study the use of creative typography for effect and the use of labeled diagrams for additional information.
Setting the scene
Many children will not have seen a praying mantis, so look at the cover photograph and discuss the features of this insect. Read the cover text and then encourage the children to name as many parts as they can. Help them to make comparisons with other insects.
- ¿Alguien sabe qué tipo de insecto es?
- ¿Qué otro insecto tiene los ojos resaltados como éstos?
- ¿Dónde creen ustedes que vive el predicador?
- ¿Qué creen que come?
