Symbolic Butterfly Migration Update & Bird Migration Game

The kids finished their butterflies. Here is a picture of them with their creations. I printed out the booklet about monarchs in Spanish, and I'm going over the checklist provided to ensure a safe trip for our butterflies. There is still time to participate in this! The deadline for your postmark is not until October 14, 2008. I am excited to see where our butterflies wind up :-)

On another note, I found this cool online game called Mission: Migration. In this game you will try to help your flock migrate safely by learning how choices you make each and every day around your home, school, and neighborhood can affect the fate of these migrating birds - in both positive and negative ways. By the time you're done, you'll have the skills and knowledge to help birds thrive and survive around your home (excerpted from their website). You even get to print out a certificate when you're done!
