Becoming a Butterfly

by  Roper Mountain Science Center

Program image

Do your students have what it takes to become a butterfly? Join us as we become butterflies. We will discuss what makes a butterfly an insect and sing our way through the body parts during the butterfly shuffle. Students will go through a metamorphosis during this program as they change from eggs into full-grown adult butterflies. Will all of them make it to adults?  

You’ll have to tune in to find out. Students will experience the life cycle from egg to adult in this interactive program. 
* Please note this program is only able to be booked when students are in their classrooms. At this time, this program is not available as a virtual offering for students schooling at home.

Roper
