    You are a butterfly, as you sit on your favorite plant you look back on your life. In the past you were an egg . Then you were a caterpillar.  After that you made a chrysalis, and waited to be what you are now, a beautiful butterfly.  You can fly over the trees. As you look back on your life you wonder if you remember it all.

     Your job is to go back in time as a butterfly and tell about your past life. Draw a picture and describe each of your life. You will do this in a group of  three. You will each pick a job. One of you will be the illustrator. Your job will be to draw the life cycle of the butterfly. Another person will be the labeler. You job is to label the stages of the butterfly and write a summarize of each stage. Last will be the informer. Your job is to describe what each stage looks like. Then the group will write a conclusion witch should tell what the host and nectar plants are, where it lives and over all facts.
