Flowers taking flight:

Taking a journey with Butterflies

OH NO! Mrs. Brook’s class has accidently knocked over the butterfly display during their field trip to the local zoo and now the big beautiful butterfly statue is on pieces on the ground! The zookeeper thankfully lets the children stay at the zoo but only if they can help put the statue back together (and give the statue a nice new shiny paint job)….

YOUR MISSION:

Mrs. Brooks has selected YOU to go online and learn everything you can about the Painted Lady butterfly’s colors and body parts! It is in your hands to make sure the statue is put together and painted correctly or Flynn Elementary will never be allowed back in a zoo again!

Here’s How:

Go to the following websites and fill out the worksheets Miss Mitchell provides.

(The butterfly body parts needs to be cut and pasted)…Stretch out your wings and go!
