Monarchs

When we found a caterpillar in the garden, we brought it inside to nurture and raise. We scoured the schoolyard for milkweed and pulled our cage off the shelf. After a few days, we had a chrysalis and a couple of weeks later our monarch hatched. We have made plasticine caterpillars, worked on small rhyming stories about caterpillars and learned cutting and gluing, as we sequenced the life cycle of monarchs. thanks Willa for your terrific find!
