Add your own favourite read aloud, get others to vote and perhaps you will win the homeschool freebie for October!

Also, we have had so much fun watching the monarch butterfly life cycle over this last month.

My son explained to me the whole story of migration and the generations of butterflies - something I didn't know about or understand.

We enjoyed writing about it, videoing the changes and even speaking about it to a Year Five Class! See our pages here:

Monarch Butterfly Life Cycle Monarch Butterfly Chrysalis
Monarch Butterfly Caterpillars

My next ezine will be coming after our holiday and will announce the winner of Teaching Descriptive Writing!
