Dear Friends of Monarch Butterflies,
The twelve kindergarten and first grade students in the The Language
Enrichment Center at Maurice Hawk School in Princeton Junction, New Jersey,
have received 13 butterflies from Mexico! Five of our butterflies were
cared for by Monica Guzman, a student in Angangueo, Michoacan. Eight more
were tagged by tourists at the sanctuary for monarchs in Michoacan. The
butterflies we received originated in IN, NH, MI, NJ, NC, MA, IL, OK. We
placed our butterflies on a huge floor map to see how far they had migrated
and returned. We noticed that they all came from the east and Midwest.
None from the west!?!?!
Here are the schools they came from:
Joseph J. Bingham School, IN
Halland Hall Primary School, OK
Frink-Chambers Elementary School, OK
Schneider Elementary School, IL
Thompson Middle School, IL
Tantasqua Regional Jr. High School, MA
Etowah Elementary School, NC
Tantasqua Regional Jr. High School, MA
Springport Middle School, MI
Harrington Middle School, NJ
Moharimet Elementary School, NH
Hamilton Heights Elementary School, IN
Moharimet Elementary School, NH
If you would like to know if one of these butterflies is yours, please
e-mail us and we will let you know. They are all so beautiful!! Thanks for
making this a special experience for us.
Sincerely,
Cathy Griffin, Learning Specialist
Maurice Hawk School
