Goal

My goal is for the second grade students to witness the life cycle of the butterfly. 

 

What will be done with my students

Students will research butterflies and find out what kinds of butterflies there are. They will also research what they eat and where they live. We will set up a butterfly garden in each second grade classroom. The students will witness the caterpillar building its cocoon and then coming out into a butterfly. They will also learn what butterflies eat and will release the butterflies into our Global Garden when the butterflies are ready. Students will track the progress of their butterfly garden in their Science journal. 

 

Benefits to my students

This will benefit the students by giving them the responsibility of taking care of the caterpillars and eventually butterflies. Students will learn the life cycle of the caterpillar and how they become butterflies! 

 

Budget Narrative

Our Second grade classrooms each have a butterfly habitat cage. This grant will supply each classroom with 10 caterpillars, a mister, butterfly feeder, eye dropper, and coloring pages for each student. All students will observe and record the complete life cycle of the butterfly.
