Monarchs Released

Today we released three monarch butterflies.  Usually our first science unit of the year is studying monarch caterpillars and their metamorphosis process.  Unfortunately, I could only find 6 caterpillars this year and they had each made a chrysalis before school started.  We have been watching these carefully, and three butterflies came out over the weekend.  It was fun to let them go and see them fly south on their way to Mexico.
