So, what's included in the module? Let's dig in!

Overview: Stop by here first to watch a quick video that will give you a few facts about fireflies and set the stage for WHY we’re taking a closer look at this species. This video is meant to be viewed with your learners.

Community Science Project: Firefly Watch: We will show you how to get started with the project, and also where to find additional (free) firefly resources.

Nature Journal: You’re going to be observing and writing about fireflies this month! We give you two options for journaling - in the wild, and in captivity.

At-Home Activity: Using inexpensive or already on-hand materials, your learners will explore three different types of luminescence and get more familiar about what causes each type to glow in the dark. 

Going Further Resources: Can’t get enough about fireflies? We totally understand! That’s why we’ve included a carefully curated and hyperlinked list of online resources for you. There are podcasts, videos, activities, and more - all free to use.
