Butterfly Release

Our first butterfly emerged from its chrysalis on Friday. It was cold on Friday, so I didn't want to release it them. I figured the rest would emerge soon, so I took them home for the weekend. My own two children had a great time "babysitting" them over the weekend, and watching them emerge. By Sunday night, all five butterflies were out of their chrysalises.

On Monday morning we released the butterflies in Keysor's bird garden. The students got very excited each time one flew away. This was a great way to learn about life cycles.
