TAYLOR PARKS ELEMENTARY SCHOOL focuses on butterfly bags


Mrs. Johnson’s class at Taylor Parks Elementary School made smart snack butterfly bags.  Their recent edition of News-2-You focused on the yearly migration of the monarch butterfly. 

News-2-You engages students in rich literacy and language instruction while learning about diverse current event topics.  The students were excited to make their grape butterflies after a week of learning many exciting things about the monarch butterfly. 

Students were able to practice fine motor skills and math as they calculated how many grapes would fit into their butterfly’s wings.  They also created recipe cards so that they can share this lesson with their friends and families at home!
