Chrysalis to Butterfly
Kindergarten Releases Monarch Butterfly

Kindergarteners had the beautiful opportunity to watch a chrysalis transform into a butterfly in their classroom this week. They had been feeding it milkweed leaves and tending to it for the past two weeks. Tuesday, it went through a metamorphosis and students released the butterfly in our school garden. It was impressive and students were captivated by how fast and high the butterfly took to flight!
