TpT credits are points, which can be applied to future purchases which will save you money. For more information about Character Traits, take a look at my blog post Teaching Characterization Through Mentor Text More Life Cycle Units Project Based Learning: Save the Monarchs I highly recommend reading this book before any life cycle unit that you may teach. Teachers, you will be prompted to make a copy for your students when you click on "Google Drive" when you download the unit.
I've provided printables and Google Slides in this study. Through this spring mentor text, students dig deep into the character traits of Maria. At the age of 13, Maria was able to disprove the theory that butterflies were made from spontaneous generation and went through developmental stages of the life cycle. This is the story of one young girl who took the time to observe and learn, and in so doing disproved a theory that went all the way back to ancient Greece.Did you know that butterflies were once believed to be evil? They were even called "Summer Birds." Back in the middle ages, people believed that butterflies and other insects were born from mud by a process called "spontaneous generation." Summer Birds, The Butterflies of Maria Merian by Margarita Engle, focuses on a certain period of Maria Merian's life. Maria studied the whole life cycle of the summer birds, and documented what she learned in vibrant paintings. She watched carefully as caterpillars spun themselves cocoons, which opened to reveal summer birds, or butterflies and moths. Maria Merian was only a child, but she disagreed. In the Middle Ages, people believed that insects were evil, born from mud in a process called spontaneous generation. This is the story of one young girl who took the time to observe and learn, and in so doing disproved a theory that went all.
