                                                                                    Introduction

                                                                       

                 Imagine that you are a Karner Blue Butterfly. With your habitats decreasing, you have nowhere to go.

             This is what is really is happening to the Karner Blue Butterfly. As more and more habitats disappear,

             more and more butterflies are left homeless. That's why some species of butterflies, including the Karner Blue,

             are endangered.

             You know that the Karner Blue butterfly is on the verge of extinction, but we can help. One thing you

             can do is to get people involved. In this web quest, you are going to create a power point that will

             inform people on the importance of the Karner Blue Butterfly. Try to get people involved.

             With everyone's help, we can save the Karner Blue Butterfly!

 

 

                `                                                      Process

                                              

                                        Step 1:  Research the karner Blue and its habitats, using the resources listed below

 

                                       Step 2:   Begin your power point. Come up with a title. It should explain the purpose

                                                     of your power point (the Karner Blue Butterfly!)

                                      

                                       Step 3:    Your power point should have at least 7 slides. In 2 or more slides explain how

                                                        important the Karner Blue Butterfly is, and also, include ways that people can

                                                        help.

 

                                       Step 4:        Add color and design to your power point. You can add a background by

                                                        clicking on design templates. Add pictures from clip art or use ones from the

                                                         resources below.

 

 

                                        Step 5:    Present your power point to family, friends, or to your classmates.

                                                        If you liked the topic of this web quest you may want to

                                                        continue researching endangered Butterflies. You might even

                                                        want to make another PowerPoint.
