There are caterpillars and monarch butterflies in our school garden!

Since monarchs migrate to Mexico in the winter, our second graders participate in a symbolic migration where we send paper butterflies to the schools surrounding the Mexican Monarch sanctuaries. In May we receive butterflies back along with letters from the students that kept our butterflies "safe and warm during the long norther winter" (Journey North). Since participating in the project, we have wanted to create a butterfly garden. Two years ago, fourth graders built raised beds for gardens. Last year, fourth graders built the fence around the garden and we planted milkweed and other butterfly plants and now we have monarch caterpillars and butterflies that will fly to Mexico when it starts getting cold!
