New Ladybug Friends

Our children have been fascinated by ladybugs ever since we learned about the ladybug life cycle earlier this spring. In case you haven't heard, our playground has been filled with ladybugs in "the wild." We have done our fair share of catching them, observing them, and then releasing them the same afternoon. This week some of our students actually found 3 ladybug pupae attached to leaves. We brought them inside and placed them in our ladybug land, hoping we have a second round of ladybugs in our classroom. Believe it or not...we have one new friend! We are still hoping the last two will join us soon.
