Exploring the Butterfly Life Cycle3rd Grade StudentsLesson Summary/ Content Questions: On the first day of the unit, students will be exploringtheir prior knowledge about life cycles. This lesson will begin with a short discussion followedby a KWL chart to engage students and prepare them to learn. After engaging students, thelesson will specifically focus on the life cycle of a butterfly through being read the book: TheLife Cycle of a Butterfly by Bobbie Kalman; and completing an art project that will reflect theirunderstandings of each stage in the life cycle.Content Questions:What is a life cycle?What are the stages of a butterfly’s life cycle?Science Standards:Science Core Curriculum Standards:§ Science Standard 4: The Living Environment- Students will understand and applyscientific concepts, principles, and theories pertaining to the physical setting andliving environment and recognize the historical development of ideas in science.1.2: Describe the life processes common to all living thingsa. Living things, grow, take in nutrients, breathe, reproduce, eliminate wasteand die.4.1: Describe the major stages in the life cycles of selected plants and animalsa. Plants and animals have life cycles. These may include beginning of life,development into an adult, reproduction as an adult, and eventually death.e. Each generation of animals goes through changes in form from you to adult.This completed sequence of changes in form is called a life cycle. Some insectschange from egg to larva to pupa to adult.f. Each kind of animal goes through its own stages of growth and developmentduring its life span.Objectives:Students willComprehend life cyclesUnderstand the different stages that make up a butterfly’s life cycleCreate an art project that demonstrates their understanding of the life cycle of a butterflyConduct research to gather information about the life cycle of a butterflyEngage:1. Engage students by asking them to draw themselves as babies, their current age, ateenager, and then as an adult into their science journals. After this have a classdiscussion that their drawings reflect the life cycle of humans, and that every livingorganism has different life cycles (especially butterflies)2. The class will then fill out a K-W-L chart about the life cycle of butterflies.mcmmeridian.org 601.207.5322 meridian@mcm.org

3. Class will then gather on the rug and teacher will read The Life Cycle of a Butterfly byBobbie Kalman.4. Teacher will review the book and the stages of the butterfly’s life cycle.Explore:Materials:Paper platesGreen construction paperScissorsSmall twigsVarious pastasColored PencilsPipe cleanersGlueWiggly eyesThe Life Cycle of a Butterfly, by Bobbie KalmanInternet sources (listed websites and youtube videos)Other non-fiction books located in classroomDirections:1. Gather materials2. Divide the paper plate into four separate sections; a stage for each section (egg,caterpillar, pupa, adult)3. Using The Life Cycle of a Butterfly, by Bobbie Kalman, and other resources (onlinewebsites, non-fiction books in classroom) use the materials to create each stage of abutterfly’s life cycle on the paper plate.** Teacher will model how to create the life cycle on a plate beforehand**Saftey:Use the materials only during designated timeDon’t eat/ drink any of the materials.Do not throw any of the materialsExplanationKey Questions:What is a life cycle?What are the stages of a butterfly’s life cycle?Vocabulary:Life cycle, metamorphosis, chrysalis, larva, pupaElaborationStudents will explore the life cycle of a butterfly through the class art activity, discussion, andbeing read the book; The Life Cycle of a Butterfly, by Bobbie Kalman.mcmmeridian.org 601.207.5322 meridian@mcm.org

Extended Activity:Students will record their thoughts and reflections of today’s lesson in their science journals.Evaluation:Formative: Informally, the teacher will constantly be observing the students as they research andwork on their art projects. The teacher will continually prompt the students as they work ifneeded.Summative: The teacher will grade the art projects as well as the journal entries. Along with thejournal entries the teacher will also assess students through a unit test once the unit is completed.Resources:The Life Cycle of a Butterfly, by Bobbie www.youtube.com/watch?v P8sAHQYvVf0Differentiation:- Different resources can be used to accommodate students of all learning styles; books,online sources (articles, videos)- Those students who may be struggling will be given a worksheet on the stages of thebutterfly to help them in the creation of their art project.- Those students who may not be able to physically participate in the art project can havea partner who can assist them.mcmmeridian.org 601.207.5322 meridian@mcm.org
