With the development of information technology, electronic schoolbag has become a hot topic of the broad masses of teachers and students, however, its application in the teaching not widely carried out, it is just exploratory. The biggest obstacle is the lack of the software environment and resources environment of electronic schoolbag in the application of classroom. How to design electronic schoolbag, provide an ideal learning environment for students, is the primary problems of the application of electronic schoolbag in the learning environment. This article is based on the functions and characteristics of electronic schoolbag, aiming at the problems existing in the learning environment, propose the overall design model of electronic schoolbag learning environment, analyze its features are in detail and take primary school science for example, provied concrete application case and the actual application result. It has important practical significance for the construction of electronic schoolbag learning environment and the design of teaching activity in electronic schoolbag learning environment.

Currently more attention is paid to natural science education in Lithuania. It is being encouraged to learn in green environment, diverse learning environments are established, however, it is also necessary to enhance teacher natural science literacy, to orientate education process into deeper learning. This article discusses, how to realise insect topic in primary school. French experience is also used for this. Use of insects for teaching purposes can be very beneficial, because students can perform long term observations and experience a lot. They: 1) observe insect development and analyse different stages (egg, larva, pupa, adult; stage length; death and what were the causes of it; environmental conditions: humidity, light, temperature, food, behaviour and so on); 2) develop critical thinking: look for the answers to emerging questions, compare and collate, find similarities and differences, solve emerging problems; 3) develop positive attitudes regarding nature, overcome fear and prejudice (an insect cannot be another animal, isn’t it, therefore it is more important to understand what makes insect so interesting and significant). Insect topic, as any other, can be interesting, useful for students getting to know animate nature, if it is directed towards students’ knowledge and understanding, ability, critical thinking and value attitude education. Teacher, undertaking educational or project activity about insects has to seriously prepare, think out in advance, what part of activity is going to take place in natural environment and what in the classroom, what educational spaces are going to be created or exploited, to read a lot on that topic, to prepare students’ activity sheets. Keywords: animate nature, project activity, primary school, science education.
