I made a animation using hyperstudio. This animation is about the Monarch Butterfly Life Cycle also I added a voiceover and sound effects using iMovie. Oh and remember to leave a comment please. The Life Cycle goes like this a Butterfly lays a egg that hatches also in that egg is a caterpillar and when it gets big it turns into a pupa, finally it transform into a butterfly.

Life Cycle of a Monarch Butterfly

At first the female butterfly lays an egg the size of a sesame seed usually under a leaf. After a few days the baby caterpillar starts squirming, it starts chewing one side of the shell making the hole bigger to emerge into the new world and just two millimetres long. It’s first snack is the shell. Then it starts exploring for milkweed leaves, while it’s eating it gets bigger so it will need new clothes to fit him. To fix this problem it will shed several times. Also each shedding starts the mark of a new life that is called an instar. When it has shedded 6 times it will shed one more time by looking for the underside of a twig. It sticks with its silk and starts the pupation and will be in a strong kind of shell that is called a pupa, then after a while it turns into a butterfly. It’s wings are smaller but after half an hour or so fluids are pumped into the wings. When wings are ready to take of the new Monarch butterfly flies into the world feeding on nectar and the life cycle will start all over again.
