IMAGINE yourself becoming a butterfly!
Your task is to follow the life cycle of the butterfly with your group. Each
of you will research a stage of the life cycle and keep a journal on it. Then
you will meet with your group to discuss the stages. When you have finished
your discussion, your group will be able to design a poster with your chosen
stages and role-play the stages in the butterfly's life.
