Second Grade
Life Cycles Changes Unit on Butterflies
Unit 4 of the Scott Foresman Reading Street series focuses on the theme of
“Our Changing World.”
By adding, this live animal unit, where students can observe the changes of
the butterfly, they can
apply new vocabulary and the concept of change using as the scientific skills
of observation,
predicting, compare and contrast, and asking questions. Students are expected
to keep a journal of
entries of their observations of the life cycle of the butterfly and to
document their learning.
Essential Question: How do things change? How do they stay the same?
Objectives:

Science Journal (Possible Sequence of Activities)
Day One (One Journal Entry)
Introduce students to the fact they will be watching butterflies grow.
Introduce students to their science
notebooks. Explain that we will write in our journals our observation and new
learning in the journal. Establish
criteria for journal entries. Create an anchor chart of your expectations
including the following:





Journal entries should all be dated.
Entries should have a heading and page number.
Entries include drawings with labels.
Write to describe what you observe.
Writing should be neat. Something you should be proud of.
Explain to the students that you have caterpillars to show them. Explain
these came out of an egg. Show
pictures of butterfly eggs.
Discuss whether looks like the butterfly that they know. Explain to students
that first the butterfly is an egg then
it goes on to its second stage of step, a larva or caterpillar. Have students
draw a picture of the larva in their
science journal. Have students again describe its color, size and shape.
Students should notice
Day Two (One Journal Entry)
Have students write down everything they think they know about butterflies.
Have students complete the stem,
“I think butterflies are…” or “I know butterflies…”
Day Three (One Journal Entry)
Have students record their questions about butterflies. Discuss with students
how they might find the answers
to their questions.
Four to Ten Days-Larvae Stage Continued (Two Journal Entry)
At least two journal entries at this stage to include any of the following:

Have students continue to observe the caterpillar. Students should use
specific descriptive words to
describe its size, shape, and color. How has their appearance changed over
the past several days?

Have students describe the behavior of the caterpillar. What are they doing?

Draw a picture of the larva identify the head, abdomen, and thorax.
Seven to Ten Days-Pupa Stage (One Journal Entry)
At a normal room temperature of 72 to 78 degrees Fahrenheit, the caterpillars
should take approximately 7 to
10 days to make the fascinating change into chrysalides. The caterpillars
will climb to the top of the cup and
hang down “head first.” It is crucial that they not be disturbed at this
point as this is their most vulnerable stage.
Although this seems to be a time of resting in the butterfly's development,
it is really a time of rapid change.
Within the chrysalis, the old body parts of the caterpillar are undergoing a
remarkable transformation to the
beautiful parts that will make up the butterfly.
Have students write at least one journal entry about the transformation from
a caterpillar to a chrysalis. They
should record using pictures and labels in the picture. Students should
record in writing what they have
observed using sequence words, i.e. first, second, next, and finally.
Students should use at least two of the
scientific vocabulary words of chrysalis, larva, metamorphosis, and
caterpillar.
Birth of the Butterfly (One Journal Entry)
Approximately seven to ten days after the chrysalides form, your butterflies
will begin to emerge as adults. The
darker the chrysalid, the closer it is to emergence. Keep your eyes on them
now as you may get to witness the
birth of a butterfly! As a butterfly emerges, it will rest in a vertical
position while pumping its wings to full size.
The butterflies do this by forcing blood under pressure into the veins of the
wings. One to two hours after
emergence, the wings will be full-sized and hardened, and the butterfly will
be ready to fly.
Don't be alarmed if you see a red liquid which looks like blood coming from
the tail end of the butterfly. This is
called meconium. It’s the left-over color and unneeded tissues from the
butterfly’s wing and body formation.
Have students write a journal entry about the birth of the butterfly. They
should record using pictures and labels
in the picture. Students should use at least two of the scientific vocabulary
of chrysalis, metamorphosis, adult
butterfly, and meconium in their description of their observation.
Adult Stage (One Week-Butterflies are recommended to be released after a few
days) (One Journal
Entry)
Have students observe the behavior of the butterflies in the Butterfly
Garden. Have students write what they
see the butterflies doing.
Feeding the Adult Butterfly (One Journal Entry)
Feeding your butterflies is fun. Mix three teaspoons of sugar into a cup of
water and stir. Decorate the floor of
your Butterfly Garden with a bouquet of fresh flowers (such as carnations or
mums). Use the included Dropper
to squirt the sugar water mixture directly onto the flowers with the
eyedropper.
An alternative is to wad up facial tissue into 2 inch balls and soak them
with the sugar water. Set the balls on a
paper plate on the floor inside the habitat. Butterflies also like to drink
from slices of freshly-cut oranges.
Have students observe the butterflies eating. You will see them unfurl their
proboscis, drink the sugar water or
orange juice, then roll the proboscis back up. Sprinkle the sugar water
mixture on the flowers or tissue balls
every day and remember to keep the sugar water refrigerated between feedings.
Have students write a journal
entry that will include a picture outlining their observation. Student should
label the proboscis. Students
describe what they have observed about how butterflies eat.
Parts of the Butterfly (One Journal Entry)
Have students observe the butterfly and discuss the different parts that they
see. Students should be able to
identify that they have six legs, antennae, head, thorax, four sets of wing
(two in the front and two in the back),
and abdomen. Have students draw the butterfly and label at least four of the
parts in their science journal.
Some students may be able to label all parts.
Summary Journal Entries (One Journal Entry)
Ask students to draw a life cycle wheel of the four stage of the buuterfly,
i.e. egg, lavae, pupa, and adult.
Students should write about what happened first, second, third, and last to
show the sequence of the life cycle.
Release of the Butterflies (One Journal Entry)
Take the Butterfly Garden outdoors and let your butterflies go. Have students
describe the process for
releasing the ladybugs through drawing in addition to describing what
happened as the ladybugs were
released.
On subsequent days, have students go out and see if they can still find their
butterflies.
Glossary (One Journal Entry)
In their back of their notebooks or using the glossary template, students
should identify at least eight
vocabulary words to draw a picture of and then explain their meaning. You may
have to students choose the
words or assign specific words.
Other Possible Writings:
As part of the expository/informational writing unit, students might create
an all about book about butterflies, all
about book about the life cycle of the butterfly, and/or how to care for your
Butterfly Garden.
Background Information for Teachers
The Painted Lady may be the most widespread butterfly in the world. It also
known as the thistle butterfly and
the cosmopolitan (because it is so widespread, occurring in North and South
America, Europe, Asia and
Africa). This flying insect lives in temperate and some tropical areas.
Egg: The Painted Lady begins its life cycle as an egg that is the size of a
pin head. Eggs are pale green with
12 to 14 longitudinal ridges; they are laid on thistle, mallow, or hollyhock
leaves. The incubation period is 3 to 5
days.
Caterpillar (larva): The caterpillar eats continually for 5 to 10 days before
it pupates. The yellow-green striped,
purple to black caterpillar has long spines on each segment. The caterpillar
is up to 1.25 inches (3 cm) long. It
builds a silky, webbed nest as it feeds, usually eating thistle, mallow,
malva, hollyhock, sunflower, or canola.
As the larva grows, it sheds its skin (this is called molting). The time
between sheddings is called an instar;
each instar has slightly different coloring.
Chrysalis (pupa): When the caterpillar has grown to the right size, it
pupates. It hangs upside-down from a
leaf or branch, and attaches itself with a single silken string. An adult
forms from the caterpillar, whose internal
structure changes completely. The chrysalis becomes almost transparent when
the butterfly is about to
emerge. An adult will emerge about 7 to 10 days after the chrysalis has
formed.
Adult: When an adult emerges from the split chrysalis, it hangs upside down
and pumps blood into its four
wings, inflating them.Then it waits for its delicate wings to dry. It can fly
a few hours after emerging.
The adult Painted Lady is mostly black, brown, and orange with some white
spots; the underside is gray with
white and red markings. The adult has a 2 - 2 7/8 inch (5.1 - 7.3 cm)
wingspan. Adults sip sweet thistle and
clover nectar. Adults can mate in about a week after emerging; adults only
live about 2 weeks.
Migration: Adults from colder parts of North America overwinter in Mexico;
adults from northern Europe
migrate to North Africa and southern Europe.
Classification: Order Lepidoptera (butterflies and moths), Family Nymphalidae
(brush-footed butterflies),
Genus Vanessa, Species cardui.
Parts of a Butterfly: Butterflies and moths have a head, four
wings, thorax, abdomen, proboscis (for drinking liquids... used
like we use a straw) two antennae, and six legs.

Poetry
The Life of a Butterfly
(Tune: Skip to My Lou)
I'm a caterpillar, wiggle with me,
I'm a caterpillar, wiggle with me,
I'm a caterpillar, wiggle with me,
What'll I be my darlin'?
A chrysalis, now sleep like me,
A chrysalis, now sleep like me,
A chrysalis, now sleep like me,
What'll I be my darlin'?
A butterfly, come fly with me,
A butterfly, come fly with me,
A butterfly, come fly with me,
What'll I be my darlin'?
Now all together, let's do all three!
A caterpillar, a chrysalis, a butterfly, three!
Move your body like this with me,
The life of a butterfly, darlin'!
The Fuzzy Caterpillar
(Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider)
The fuzzy caterpillar
Curled up on a leaf,
Spun her little chrysalis
And then fell fast asleep.
While she was sleeping
She dreamed that she could fly,
And later when she woke up
She was a butterfly!
The Caterpillar
Fuzzy little caterpillar
Crawling, crawling, on the ground.
Fuzzy little caterpillar
Nowhere, nowhere to be found.
Though we've looked and looked
And hunted everywhere around!
When the little caterpillar
Found his furry coat too tight,
Then a snug cocoon he made him
Spun of silk so soft and light.
Rolled himself away within it -Slept there day and night.
Caterpillar
by Mary Dawson
(Tune: Itsy Bitsy Spider)
Creepy crawly caterpillar
Looping up and down,
Furry tufts of hair along
Your back of golden brown.
You will soon be wrapped in silk,
Asleep for many a day;
And then, a handsome butterfly,
You'll stretch and fly away.
The Caterpillar
by Christina Georgina Rosetti
Brown and furry
Caterpillar in a hurry;
Take your walk
To the shady leaf or stalk.
May no toad spy you,
May the little birds pass by you;
Spin and die,
To live again a butterfly.
The Butterfly Song
(Tune: Up on the Housetop)
First comes a butterfly and lays an egg.
Out comes a caterpillar with many legs.
Oh see the caterpillar spin and spin,
A little chrysalis to sleep in.
Oh, oh ,oh wait and see!
Oh, oh, oh wait and see!
Out of the chrysalis, my oh my,
Out comes a beautiful butterfly!
The Cocoon
I found a cocoon
That a caterpillar made,
Fastened to a leaf
Hanging in the shade.
He barely had room
To wiggle or wag,
Like me zipped up
In my sleeping bag.
I looked each time
That I passed his way,
But he never budged
Until just today.
Something happened!
He wagged and wiggled
And then climbed out
And carefullly jiggled
Small wet wings
That grew as they dried.
He'd turned to a butterfly
Inside!
Birth of a Butterfly
(can be sung to the tune of Hush Little Baby, Don't Say a Word)
A mama butterfly lays all her eggs,
Out pops a caterpillar, crawling on its legs.
The caterpillar first is rather thin,
But then it eats till it bursts through its skin.
After growing nice and big,
The caterpillar climbs on a leaf or twig.
It makes a shell where it hangs insiede.
The shell then cracks, and teh parts divide.
Inside the shell, a change was going on,
The form of the caterpillar now is gone.
When the shell opens, what comes out?
A beautiful butterfly fluttering about!
Meish Goldish
Butterfly Cycle
(to the tune of "Row, Row, Row Your Boat")
Hatch, hatch little egg,
I'm so very small.
Teeny tiny caterpillar,
You can't see me at all.
Crawl, caterpillar, crawl,
Munching on a leaf.
Crawling, munching, crawling, munching,
Eat and eat and eat.
Form, form chrysalis,
I'm a different shape;
Hanging by a silken thread
Until I can escape.
Rest, rest, chrysalis
While I change inside;
Now at last my time has come
To be a butterfly.
Stretch, stretch, pretty wings,
It's a special day;
Soon they will be strong enough
For me to fly away.
Fly, fly, butterfly,
Fly from flower to tree;
Find a place to lay my eggs
So they can grow like me.

Caterpillar Song
I started as a tiny egg
Upon a leaf of green
And now I stay upon the leaf
So I will not be seen
Soon I'll build a chrysalis
Upon a limb up high
I'll stay a while and then come out
And be a butterfly
The Butterfly song

Oh, oh ,oh wait and see
oh oh oh wait and see
Out of the chrysalis,my oh my
out comes a pretty butterfly.

As he wiggles
Across a hairy leaf!

Our garden's furry little train,
Sir Caterpillar, please explain.
I've been told that by and by
you'll turn into a butterfly.
Instead of moving like a train
You'll fly and flutter like a plane!
I've wished for wings, but I don't know
Just how a kid gets wings to grow.
If you could show me how to do it,
I bet there would be nothing to it!
Flitter, flitter, butterfly,

CATERPILLARS!
What do caterpillars do?
Nothing much but chew and chew.
What do caterpillars know?
Nothing much but how to grow.
They just eat what by and by
will make them be a butterfly,
But that is more than I can do
however much I chew and chew.

The bright sun comes up.
The dew falls away.
Good morning, good morning
The butterflies say.

of an insect.
Antennae are used for feeling, smelling, and tasting.
caterpillar - (CAT-er-pill-er): the second stage in life of a butterfly just
after it hatches from the
egg.
chrysalis - (KRISS-uh-lis); plural, chrysalides (KRISS-uh-lids): another name

that attaches the
chrysalis to the silk button spun by the caterpillar.
exoskeleton - (ex-o-SKEL-ah-ton): the outer "skeleton" of an insect (insects
do not have bones)
made of the cuticle.
frass - the solid waste or excrement of caterpillars and butterflies and
called caterpillar poop by
most students.
hibernation - (hi-ber-NAY-shun): when an animal sleeps through the winter.
insect - (IN-sekt): an animal with a hard outer skin. And insect's body has 3
parts: a head, a
thorax, and an abdomen. Insects have 6 legs, 2 antennae and usually, wings.
instar - (IN-star) a period between larval molts. There are five of these
periods in the growth of
some larva.
larva - (LAR-vuh). plural, larvae (LAR-vee): the second stage, after the egg,

mating - the joining of a male (father) and a female (mother) to make babies.
maxillary palp - (MAX-a-lary palps): small sensory organs on either side of
the mouth of a
caterpillar that help direct food.
metamorphosis - (met-ah-MOR-fa-sis): A complete change from one form to
another. Through
metamorphosis a butterfly is transformed from an egg, to a larva
(caterpillar), to a pupa
(chrysalis), to a adult (butterfly).
migration - when an animal travels a long way, at certain times of the year,
to find a better
place to live.
molting - the shedding of an animal's old layer of skin, scales, fur or
feathers.

caterpillars have 10 prolegs, also called false legs. The six "true" legs are
part of the
thorax.
pupa - (PUE-pa) plural, pupae (PUE-pee): The third stage in the life of a
butterfly between
the caterpillar and the adult insect. Also called the chrysalis.
scales - overlapping pieces of material that insulate butterflies' bodies and
wings, improve their
aerodynamics, and give them color and markings. Many people think the scales
look like
fine dust on butterfly wings.
spinneret - (SPIN-ah-ret): the organ on the bottom of the larva head from
which silk is spun.
This is the only silk-producing organ in the larvae.
thorax - (THO-rax): the middle part of an insect's body. The wings, if
present, and legs are
attached to this segment.
tracheae - (TRAY-kee-uh) plural (TRAY-kee). long tubes that deliver air
through the body of an
insect. In caterpillars these are attached to the spiracles and are pulled
out of the body
during molting.
true legs - joined appendages located on the thoracic segment of a larva.
