They learned about characteristics, identifying different types, what makes them special, and insect body parts. The students used an Insect Checklist to help them learn these skills. Each day the students focused on one insect, used visuals, and technology to further their learning. The students also listened to insect stories during story time. They wrote sentences that described each insect while practicing correct sentence structure. They continued their learning with sorting insects, practicing writing skills using dry erase boards, and visits to the school Butterfly Garden to see caterpillars in action. In the classroom, the students had the privilege to observe caterpillars turn into chrysalis and then into butterflies. The class will release them once they are ready.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"dt-pswp-item\" href=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture5-1.png\" data-dt-img-description=\"\" data-large_image_width=\"842\" data-large_image_height=\"1279\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft  wp-image-3834\" src=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture5-1-197x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"341\" height=\"519\" srcset=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture5-1-197x300.png 197w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture5-1-461x700.png 461w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture5-1-768x1167.png 768w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture5-1.png 842w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 341px) 100vw, 341px\" \/><\/a><a class=\"dt-pswp-item\" href=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture4-2.png\" data-dt-img-description=\"\" data-large_image_width=\"582\" data-large_image_height=\"582\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-3833 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture4-2-300x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"409\" height=\"409\" srcset=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture4-2-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture4-2-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture4-2.png 582w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 409px) 100vw, 409px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"dt-pswp-item\" href=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture2-4.png\" data-dt-img-description=\"\" data-large_image_width=\"1250\" data-large_image_height=\"525\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3831 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture2-4-300x126.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"531\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture2-4-300x126.png 300w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture2-4-700x294.png 700w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture2-4-768x323.png 768w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture2-4.png 1250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 531px) 100vw, 531px\" \/><\/a><a class=\"dt-pswp-item\" href=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture1-6.png\" data-dt-img-description=\"\" data-large_image_width=\"507\" data-large_image_height=\"538\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-3830 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture1-6-283x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"363\" height=\"385\" srcset=\"https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture1-6-283x300.png 283w, https:\/\/schools.stlucie.k12.fl.us\/mar\/files\/Picture1-6.png 507w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 363px) 100vw, 363px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mrs. Bonilla&#8217;s VPK students at Mariposa Elementary begun their second week of Insect Learning.
