  • An Educator's Guide to Butterflies!
    An Educator’s Guide to Butterflies! Lessons and Other Resources for Teachers Supported by funding from the National Science Foundation An Educator’s Guide to Butterflies! Lessons and Other Resources for Teachers Introduction These materials were developed by The Academy of Natural Sciences in conjunction with Philadelphia school teachers. The subject matter was designed to complement the Academy’s live Butterflies! exhibit, but a visit to the Academy is not required. Each lesson included is classroom-based. Lessons are aligned with both Pennsylvania State and Philadelphia District standards and address multiple curriculum content areas, including Math, Science, Literacy, Geography, Visual Arts, and Technology Education. How to Use This Guide This guide contains twelve lessons, each with associated pre- and post-lesson exercises, designed for students in grades five through eight. General background information, a glossary of vocabulary terms, and content standards descriptors are also provided. The topic of each lesson falls under one of three major themes: Life Cycles, Habitats, or Adaptations. Each lesson is designed as an independent “stand-alone” and does not need to be taught in sequence with the other lessons. Teachers may choose to utilize the entire guide or only those lessons and activities that they consider most applicable to their students’ needs. Two of the four lessons in each thematic unit include optional Academy-based components involving activities to do while in the Butterflies! exhibit. Although a museum visit will enhance the students’ experience and comprehension, all lessons can be completed without these elements. Specific components of each lesson include: 1. Introductory Pieces: Journal Prompts (to build student background knowledge and access prior knowledge), a Word Bank (with vocabulary linked to the accompanying glossary), and Objectives (identifying goals that can be measured).
