Update: @kyleengene discovered that @insectlore website has these IN STOCK for $35 and I posted the free shipping code in my stories! Thanks Kyleen!! If you ever see these #lifecycle figurines in a large set snatch. them. up!! I had almost given up hope on finding them months ago because they had been out of stock on amazon for a loooong time but then I randomly checked amazon one day and bam ordered immediately ... that was two weeks ago and now they are out of stock again ...you can buy them individually but they are cheaper in the set. Minus the bean plant I paid like $32 after shipping for the other six sets and you can easily spend up to double that when buying them individually My kids love these tangible sets to go alongside any learning / art projects that we do pertaining to these creatures... these are especially great if you plan to raise butterflies, or lady bugs, or praying mantises etc. or to accompany @thegoodandthebeautiful Arthropods science unit... who else loves their life cycle figurines #thegoodandthebeautiful
Today we released our butterflies and it was truly wonderful.

We have cooler temps this week, but still beautiful enough to take our butterfly study outside. thankful for @stephhathawaydesigns butterfly unit!

We focused on the lifecycle and read about migration. We also talked about the symmetry of their wings and body. - swipe to see the activity for this. .

We used glitter glue, but I think washable paint would have worked much better for transfer. Either way they saw the mirror effect

Also the last slide is a view of our growing caterpillars from #insectlore
These books by #diannahuttsaston and Sylvia Long are absolutely wonderful!! Beautiful artwork, descriptive words, and facts fill these pages...and I LOVE how some cursive is also found throughout. Definitely will keep these books handy on our shelf alongside our #juliarothman collection and other favorites we keep nearby. Swipe to see some peeks inside who else loves these beauties ♀️
