“Metamorphosis” by Emma F
Most butterflies lay their eggs on a plant that they want the larva to eat
Egg is when the butterfly lays an egg on a plant
Taste…Butterflies taste with their feet
Adult is when the butterfly comes out of its pupa
Metamorphosis
is complete change in the life cycle
On a leaf a mother butterfly lays her eggs
Relaxing is what the larva does when it’s done eating
Place to find a butterfly is a garden
Host plant is a leaf from a tree that the larva eats
On the larva is hair
Stay alive from one week to a day
I go through incomplete metamorphosis
Select mates by wing color
“Butterflies” by Stephanie L
Beautiful insects that fly
Use their proboscis to drink nectar
Their wings are colorful to observe
The butterflies fly around flowers
Eat lots of food
Really cool things to watch
Flutter around things that smell good
Live only one day to a year
Ice cold weather they cannot live in
Eyes that can see all around them
Summer is when butterflies make new lives begin
“Butterflies” by Bryan F
Breathing holes help them to breath
Usually they come out in the day
There are a lot of kinds in the world
They have three body parts
Eggs hatch a day to a month later
Really small creatures
Fly really high
Look like tiny monsters
It loves Gatorade
Eats with its proboscis
Sees only light and dark
Beautiful animals
Uses its proboscis
to drink
Tube called a
proboscis
Thin wings help it
to fly straight
Eyes have hundreds
of six sided lenses
Reaches the end of
metamorphosis
Fun observing these
animals
Loves to drink
nectar
Interesting insects
Enormously fun to
observe
Some have dull
colors
By Christian M
Most butterflies live until they
are adults
Egg is the first
stage of the butterfly
They
lay tiny eggs
Adult is the last
stage of the butterfly
Millions of larva
can hatch in two months
Often
butterflies flutter
Resting…not much
Pupa is the third
stage of the butterfly
Her eggs turn into
larva
Outside
on a plant, they lay their eggs
Stages of
development
It is very
interesting
