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

This Butterfly Life Cycle activity is the perfect way for our first grade learners to engage in the journey of a butterfly's transformation. We teachers will bring this hands-on activity into the classroom, allowing students to explore the stages of a butterfly's life in a creative and interactive way. Not only does the Butterfly Life Cycle activity foster creativity and fine motor skills, but it also facilitates a deeper understanding of the natural world. Through hands-on exploration, students gain insight into the miraculous metamorphosis of butterflies, igniting their curiosity and appreciation for the wonders of nature.

We have also included the Elephant and Piggie books to enhance or classroom libraries with accessible books about other animals.
