What a fabulous site to learn about butterflies! There are several quiz activities, a field observation activity where you identify the parts of a butterfly, and a section where you can also build your own butterfly habitat! This would be a great extension to a lesson on butterfly life cycles. Enjoy!

Hams Hall Pond is a wonderful interactive site for teaching students about life cycles, food chains, and the variation and classification of living things in their environments. See a virtual pond and learn about its inhabitants, complete drag and drop activities on the life cycle of a frog or butterfly, and more. Check it out!

Check out the Molecularium Kid Site for learning about atoms, molecules, solids, liquids, gases, and more! The Nanolab section contains 3 interactives that include  Build, Zoom, and Transform activities. Your students will love the groovy music, too. Did I say groovy?
