External Parts of the Butterfly Booklet

Extend classification work to include the external anatomy of an invertebrate children are likely to have experienced first-hand. After children have seen real butterflies, worked with 3-part photo cards, and learned all of the part names. Then, introduce this booklet.

It combines definitions with photos isolating each part of the gulf fritillary butterfly in its natural color while the rest of the animal recedes into the background in muted shades of gray. The 18-page spiral-bound, laminated booklet lies flat. Rounded corners prevent damage. Printed on recycled paper.

Parts include: whole butterfly, head, antennae, proboscis, eyes, thorax, legs, wings, and abdomen.

Please note: 5-mil laminate extends just to the edge of each booklet, not beyond.
