My Project

Giving my students the ability to have the two butterfly exploration kits to be able to see the butterflies in the real life cycle of events instead of just on video is a real life experience that my students would gain new learning experiences as well as be able to explore the life cycles of a butterfly in real life.

my students that is a goal for them as my students they thrive on sensory activities and abilities to explore in life experiences help them.

Having the ability to utilize the 6 view finders to see many different animals upclose in view and to be able to select and explore life in different environments outside their own environment would help them learn and grown exponentially.

These learning tools will help them grow in the classroom as we will utilize the butterfly life cycle to explain and grow our minds in the exploration of their life cycle as well as take pictures to help capture and retain our knowledge.
