BUTTERFLY OR MOTH?

“The moth prefers the moon and detests the sun, while the butterfly loves the sun and hides from the moon. Every living creature responds to light.”

Suzy Kassem

While we wait for our chrysalis to open and see the butterfly, we want to learn a little bit more about them. Just the other day we discovered an insect that is very similar to a butterfly… the moth.

After doing some activities to remember vocabulary we watched a video about the difference between butterflies and moths. The video in English was not as difficult as we thought: we were familiar with the topic of the video and the images helped us understand the general idea. 

To reinforce the ideas and practice a bit of reading strategies, we did some activities together on the digital screen and individually on paper. Again, reading is easy if you know the topic and the important words are marked.
