Lifecycle Learning

Posted on 10/02/2017

Indian Lake Elementary third graders watched everything they've been learning the past few weeks go up in the air!
Third grade Science Teacher Pam Scarpella took her classes outside to release the Painted Lady Butterflies they raised recently. 
For the past two week students got to watch as the butterfly larva (or caterpillars) grew into the pupa (or chrysalis) stage. Then they hatched into butterflies, ready to fly away. 
Throughout the school year students will also be studying the life cycles of frogs, plants and humans.
