"THE GRAND-CHIDREN HAVE RETURNED"
I just collected 19 monarch eggs at my favorite STOP SIGN in Milwaukee County. My 6th graders released over 100 tagged monarchs last fall and now the "cycle" continues. When they walk into the room on Tuesday, they'll be greeted to the front chalkboard's note with which I began this post. There were about 40 plants surrounding the stop sign (double the number from last year) and I left many eggs to hatch in the wild. I've never hatched spring monarchs, so the 6th graders can now have a much better understanding of all the "Cycles in Nature"!!!!
