Ladybug Lessons

We are having a blast with our insect unit this month. We moved from Butterflies to Ladybugs this week.  So many things to learn!  Lots of fun!



Lifecycle learning...


We just sent away for (on line) our larva for the ladybug land!  Can't wait to hatch our own!




Just so happened that I had one of his reading comprehension stories cued up to Ladybugs!


Painting our rocks into Ladybugs!  This is one of our Sun Scholar art projects also!





Cute huh!
