Butterflies on the brain

Read Now
 
We've got butterflies on the brain! Today's hero of the environment was Duncan Jurman who has been fascinated by butterflies since the age of 4. In high school, Duncan developed a large butterfly garden at his school which successfully attracted 28 species of butterflies including 2 endangered species. We learned about butterfly life cycles and played musical butterflies - each time the music stops, you have to act out the life cycle stage you land on! While outdoors we tallied how many cabbage white butterflies we saw and looked for butterfly eggs under leaves. We loved making our butterfly crafts flutter up and down the hallway!
