What is this all about?

This blog is for the children, teachers , parents and friends of Monroe Academy. Its purpose is to provide a place to archive the Butterfly Garden and activities related to the garden. Contributions and ideas are welcome! This will also be a great resource for parents who sign up for the Butterfly Garden Committee. The garden is located next to the Preschool building, but there are plans to expand the Outdoor Classroom throughout the campus.

Painting Tiles and Planting Seeds

There are a few projects that we are going to try to do by the end of the month. One is painting some tiles. The garden needs a ‘Butterfly Garden’ sign.  One idea is to have the children in the K-4 classes paint on ceramic tiles, the letters to spell out Butterfly Garden and/or pictures of butterflies, flowers, caterpillars, etc.  

The other project is to start seeds indoors that can be planted by the children in about four weeks.
