Mrs. Gutsch’s third grade students learned about the life cycle with Mexican jumping beans! The students explained that the mother moth laid eggs in the seed pods and these seed pods have hardened since last September. During this time in the seed pod, the eggs have developed into larvae. This larvae has now dug its way out of the seed pod and formed a chrysalis. Finally, the larvae sheds the chrysalis and out comes a moth! Complete metamorphosis! #growinglearners

Business Communications students worked on teamwork and problem solving by creating a safe package for an egg.
