Wow! Great design and architecture !

We have been studying life cycles of plants and animals in class, we had a cool ant farm thanks to Sam Sperry. We are currently trying to sprout some Mammoth Sunflower seeds and we just got a jar of Painted Lady caterpillars today. We are excited to learn more, and our spelling words tie in with our science studies. Here they are: life, cycle, caterpillar, pupa, chrysalis, butterfly, ladybug, antenna, nectar, scale, insect, animal, sunflower, seed, root, stem, flower and pollen. We also have some great bonus words: metamorphosis, proboscis, incubation. Cool stuff for spring!
