Ms. Binegar’s STEAM classes have been participating in a Live Caterpillar to Butterfly Project. This project has been a fantastic educational activity where students have observed the caterpillars grow, form chrysalides and emerge as butterflies! The two classes started with 5 caterpillars each. To date, 8 have formed into chrysalides and 6 have emerged as butterflies! The class is looking forward to seeing if the remaining two chrysalides mature into butterflies.
Over several weeks the students have learned about the butterfly life cycle, metamorphosis, insect anatomy and environmental concerns facing butterflies. The project will end with the release of the butterflies.
