Students will observe monarch butterfly migrations and how such things as the abundance of milkweed (their major food source) affects their ability to migrate and reproduce. The tadpole metamorphosis will be demonstrated and explained through the use of puppetry. Bluebonnet pollination and the importance of bees will be taught through the use of original music and songs by musician and singer Lucas Miller.
With unforgettable songs, hilarious puppetry, and dazzling videos, author, singer, and guitarist Lucas Miller makes science a blast. Touring for over 25 years, this “singing zoologist” has earned a reputation as one of the nation’s finest school presenters and his YouTube videos (youtube.com/user/biorhythms) are played across the planet to help teachers put some life in the life sciences. This multimedia, musical bonanza covers a wealth of science TEKS, delighting teachers just as much as kids!
