Compound eyes. Three-part bodies. Three pairs of legs. Just a few of the facts local elementary-aged students learned at the Insect Investigators Camp at Mount Aloysius College Wednesday afternoon. The insect camp, led by Carnegie Science Center’s Science on the Road program, appeared for a one-day summer youth program for elementary students between first and third grade. “It’s a popular program,” said Cathy Kozak, special events coordinator at the Mount. “Most kids in this age range are really excited about insects.” Jon Doctorick and Kara Evanoff with Science on the Road taught 32 elementary students about many insect facts throughout the three-hour camp. They told students that insects have three parts, three pairs of legs and compound eyes. Doctorick and Evanoff led many activities including an ultraviolet light experiment to show the students how many insects see. “Some bugs with their compound eyes can see in ultraviolet light,” Doctorick said. “Some see in infrared, too.
