- Finding Beetles in the Smithsonian's Backyard
- Description
- Dan Babbit, Manager at the Insect Zoo and Live Butterfly Pavilion at Smithsonian's National Museum of Natural History, takes us to the museum's butterfly habitat garden located in downtown Washington D.C. As we search for beetles with Dan, he proves that we don't have to travel far to find amazing insects. This video series, "Explore with Smithsonian Experts," connects students and teachers with the skill and technique of Smithsonian experts who describe their work at our nation's museums. In each short film, experts introduce new ways to observe, record, research, and share, while using real artifacts and work experiences. Supports Common Core ELA standards. Produced by the Smithsonian Center for Learning and Digital Access and Pearson Foundation.
