Butterfly Lesson 2 - Monarch Caterpillar

Students study the Monarch Butterfly life cycle. In this Monarch Butterfly instructional activity, students examine what happens prior to a caterpillar hatching, how often it sheds its skin, and what the caterpillar goes through when it is preparing to enter the chrysalis stage. They examine photos, listen to a read aloud, and participate in a question and answer session. They complete a timetable and an art instructional activity.
