Butterflies

I have been working on some fun things.
I can't wait to share them!
I just need to find more time...

In the mean time, we got our caterpillars in the mail over a week ago.
The kids are loving it.
They are all in an "I want to be an entomologist when I grow up" phase.
I wonder how long that will last?
We are waiting on one more to turn into a chrysalis, then we get to put them in their habitat.




I drew some pictures for this unit and made a handout and worksheet.




My kiddios always make me feel like a superhero when I give them something I drew.  It is really fun for me to make these for them.  I printed off large pictures and laminated them for our lesson.  






We are waiting anxiously for our butterflies to emerge!

  3. Wow, cool. I already saw the turning-into-a-butterfly and releasing. Now I get to see the start. So that's how you got the butterflies in the first place...so neat that you can send for them with all the equipment you need. What a terrific project! I'm so glad the kids were able to be part of the whole life-cycle of the butterflies, to see it all happening in front of them. Yours is just the greatest school ever!!!
    Lots of love to all.
