She is a dedicated individual. Seeing her share her passion with others is a wonderful experience. We called her the Butterfly lady at the refuge. Her interactive seminars at Forsythe last year were wonderful. Many who attended , left with understanding and a need for more information. Great Job and two thumbs up…….And Butterflies do tickle!

This quote from Mary's account resonates profoundly with me. I visited Sierra Chincua and El Rosario in March 2008 and I am still completely enchanted by the magic of the monarch. Everyone who follows the monarch's journey and transformation is forever changed and, yes, it brings together whole school communities in a way that I have not ever witnessed before in 25 years of teaching. Monarch teaching in the classroom, as I have observed it for 2 years now, at Brighton Public School, Brighton, Ontario is far more than just science or social studies. It can be integrated across the entire curriculum and I intend to suggest that this summer when I work on curriculum writing at Ontario's Ministry of Education in Toronto.

I have a website, Glorious-Butterfly.com, about raising Monarch butterflies. I got "monarch fever" several years ago when I decided to try raising Monarchs at home. It was such a wonderful experience I decided to share this miraculous insect with others. I also believe that the monarch butterfly is the perfect lesson for students in so many ways. There is a section for teachers on my website. If you ever would like to share your tips, suggestions or stories with other teachers, I would love to add it to my website. Just let me know :) Just use the "Contact Us" form on my website. Thanks for sharing! Mary,
