      A lot of ways you could adapt this for ELL learners or Special needs 1st grade
    • Jessica Buell
       
      Adaptions: You can adapt this activity for ELL and special needs by doing an into to the bufferfly lifecycle, you can include books, do drawings charting the life cycle. While you are doing this you can have the students make a vocabulary journal identifying vocabulary used in the butterfly life cycle. Extensions: I think ALL grades would love this activity, you would want to add things to the activity depending on the grade level. For example, for 2nd graders you can have them journal and write stories about their butterflies, 3rd grade you can have them define different types of butterfies and then see which type they have from their habitats, 4th graders can identify different locations you may find different types of butterflies, and for kindergarten you can identify differences between butterflies and moths....etc!

    1.3.4 Describe how animals' habitats, including plants, meet their needs for food, water, shelter and an environment in which they can live. 1.3.5 Observe and describe ways in which animals and plants depend on one another for survival. 1.3.2 Observe organisms closely over a period of time in different habitats such as terrariums, aquariums, lawns and trees. Draw and write about observations. 1.4.3 Construct a simple shelter for an animal with natural and human-made materials.

      Extension: This activity could be a culminating activity to a unit on monarch butterflies, integrating Language Arts.

      I have seen a pasta butterfly life cycle created on a paper plate divided into fourths (similar to the one I shared in class that used other materials) which helps to emphasize the cyclical nature because next to the adult section is the egg section which starts the process all over again.

Where Do Butterflies Come From? - 1 views

      I just loved this craft activity. It would be the perfect activity to do after you talked about the life cycle of a butterfly. This gives the kids who need more hands on activity the ability to explain what happens to a butterfly. After they make it have the students talk about the cycle in their own words.

Make My Day: Addition Style | Education.com - 1 views

  • Addition with 3-digit numbers has never been so fun! This activity uses a deck of cards to create addition problems and figure out sums. Start out playing with your child, and gradually allow him to solve problems more independently. You'll see his confidence with adding improve as he practices in a more engaging way. Soon enough, he'll be racing through the deck to create sums!

      Adaptations: This game can also be a subtraction game for gifted students.  ELL students will learn about science through looking at the pictures on the cards of different species of butterflies.  Special Ed students can play this game in pairs or small groups to help them with addition/subtraction. Extension: Use "The Natural World - playing card collection" to connect math with science. (i.e. butterflies of the world) This deck contains pictures of butterflies with the card numbers.

Lesson Plans: Symmetry (all, Mathematics) - 1 views

      I like this symmetry lesson, especially the part when students will switch desks and do the other half of their neighbors design. This concept also leads well into Art (butterflies) and literature. This lesson could be for any grade just by changing the object they use for symmetry.
