Butterfly Research

Since we have butterfly larva and are getting to witness the life cycle of a painted lady butterfly firsthand, we are researching butterflies.  We've already read one short book, currently reading Butterfly Battle, a Magic School Bus book, and have read a couple of web sites.  The students will compile all their notes into a paper complete with bibliography.  They will also create a glog about butterflies.  We were lucky enough to catch some larva turning into chrysalis today with the time elapse camera set at 30 seconds.  We have some fabulous pictures to use.  The bibliography is being compiled as we research and the bibliography is easy thanks to www.easybib.com.
