Butterflies

This week we learned about the lifecycle of a butterfly.  The students enjoyed learning all about the changes from caterpillar to butterfly.

Everyone especially enjoyed reading these wonderful Eric Carle books.

 We read many great books and used some great internet resources to learn about the lifecycle of butterflies.
