My students will get to do hands on learning. They will see life begin before their eyes and learn empathy by taking care of another living being. My students can observe caterpillars morph into butterflies with the Butterfly Bungalow, something they may never have another chance to do. They will read The Hungry Caterpillar and In The Tall, Tall Grass prior to raising butterflies. We will dig for pretend worms, paint butterflies, cut out insect shapes, sequence story plots and observe the magic of science. When using the Insect and Spider Discovery Kit, my students would be able to explore and investigate the way bugs look and feel meeting sensory input for many. This would be something my students could explain to others and something they could remember for years and years.
