Pop up book activity: Bella The Butterfly

Bella the butterfly is a book designed to help teach a second grade state standard about Life cycles. This book was designed by Miss Hill to help grab students attention through colorful poup pictures and rhyming words while teaching students the four stages of the cycle. 1st page: The egg stage, this page has a pop up leaf with small pom poms representing eggs.

2nd Page: The caterpillar stage, I cut out leaves using construction paper and made caterpillars with pipe cleaners.

3rd page: Caterpillar growth, on this page I showed how the caterpillar eats and gets bigger before the larva stage. I cut links out of different color construction paper, used pipe cleaners for antennas, and cut leaves out with holes show the caterpillar eating leaves. 4th page: Larva/metamorphosis, used construction paper and sticks for the tree limbs and tissue paper for larva. 5th page: Butterfly, used construction paper and the binding of the book to create a pop up butterfly.
