[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 375034, member: 1246"] Grade Two.......... [FONT=Times New Roman]My Grade 2 class was doing a special project in which they raised butterflies from caterpillars. The students and I watched the insects in our classroom aquarium as they attached themselves to the lid, each forming a chrysalis. Within a week they began to emerge, wet and crumpled. The kids watched in fascination as the wings began to straighten and, with careful fanning, the butterflies dried themselves. About three days after hatching, the insects began to fly. One little boy in particular, who had been watching carefully each day, saw this and excitedly announced. "They're flying!" "Of course they're flying!" a little girl in the class replied, rolling her eyes. "They're called 'butterflies.' If they didn't fly, they'd just be butter!" [/FONT] [/QUOTE]
