The Butterflies have been learning about community this summer and their classmates’ neighborhoods. We decided to work on a collaborative project and created our own Butterfly city. Model magic has been a favorite material of this class, and we used other mixed media with the material to build homes places they visited in their neighborhood such as bakeries, firehouses, grocery stores or parks. Each student has also really enjoyed taking “selfies” this year, and we added a picture of each student in their building.
