Goodnight Butterfly Activities for Reading Comprehension
Goodnight Butterfly is the sequel to The Little Butterfly That Could and The Very Impatient Caterpillar. This time Butterfly is trying to sleep but a porcupine wakes her up. It pairs perfectly with The Very Impatient Caterpillar and our Butterfly lifecycle journals. I just had to make some activities to go along with this story. This literature extension pack is filled with comprehension strategies that you can use and differentiate for all your learners. There are also writing and word work activities as well as a few fun math games too. Students will have fun creating the impatient butterfly craft too. There is a coloring version as well.
