Life Science Reading Comprehension Passage and Questions: Insects' Disguises (Fillable PDF) This very engaging life science reading passage about Insects' Disguises: how insects use camouflage and mimicry to survive . It explains the difference between the two strategies: Camouflage helps insects blend into their surroundings so predators do not notice them. Examples include stick insects, leaf insects, and katydids. Mimicry helps insects look like something else, either something dangerous or something tempting. Examples include hoverflies that look like bees or wasps, and mantises that imitate flowers or dead leaves. The passage also explains how these disguises work because predators make quick decisions based on color, shape, motion, and patterns. This passage is designed to bridge the gap between science and literacy through strengthening reading comprehension and sparking scientific curiosity in middle school students. The passage blends English Language Arts skills with accurate science content that supports NGSS classroom practice. Ideal for interdisciplinary learning in ELA and Science.
