Help me give my students speech therapy while learning all about caterpillars and butterflies!

FULLY FUNDED! Mrs. Thibault's classroom raised $347

Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

These butterfly kits, magnetic visuals, and manipulatives will help my students learn all about the life cycle of butterflies while working on their communication skills! The butterfly kits will allow students to see the transformation from caterpillars to butterflies firsthand. I will use the lamination sheets to laminate the visuals I have made to go along with this unit. Students will work on expanding word utterances, describing, sequencing, and so much more with these resources. Please help me bring my students the magic of life with these butterfly life cycle resources! My students and I thank you!
