Home Grown Butterflies

We're reading Home-Grown Butterflies in class this week.  It's a real story about how people raise butterflies in Costa Rica.  In this one village, there were fewer and fewer fish to eat and sell for money.  Soon they would have to cut down trees from the rain forest in order to farm the land.  A scientist taught the school kids how to start a butterfly farm!  They now sell the pupae, or eggs, to zoos.  My conclusion is that those kids are serious about protecting their environment.

We're reading the story Boom Town, which tells a story

about a young girl and her family who moved west. 

Amanda is bored, so she bakes a pie. After people 

begin buying her pies, Amanda starts a bakery. Things 

happen one after another. We keep track of the things 

that happen and the order, or sequence, in which they 

happen. When we finish reading, we’ll know which events 

are really important. I guess they’ll lead us to know 

how Boom Town came to be.
