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!
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.

Have you answered the following questions in your PowerPoint?

1. What is happening to the Karner Blue butterfly's habitats?
2.Where are some of habitats that still exist?
3. What are 3 ways that other people can help?
4. About how many Karner Blue butterflies are left in the world?

5. Does your PowerPoint a background?
6. Did you have about 3-6 pictures?
7. Did you use animation wisely? (normal speeds, not too many effects)
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.
