This 5-day unit plan focuses on teaching pre-k students about the lifecycle of butterflies. Students will read websites and books, such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar, to learn the stages of a butterfly's development from egg to caterpillar to chrysalis to adult butterfly. They will use technology like YouTube videos and Sheppard Software to reinforce their understanding. Students will create their own butterfly lifecycle books and take photos to upload to Picture Trail for classmates to view. The goal is to engage students in an authentic learning experience about butterfly development using reading, art, observation, and technology.
