Scientists rely on Citizen Scientists to track the migration of the monarch butterflies as they journey north from Mexico and back again. This amazing pollinator begins its fall migration from August to November and spring migration from March to June. Students can follow migration news, see the real-time mapping of the butterfly's movements, and report their own sightings with this amazing project from the University of Wisconsin - Madison Arboretum.

Welcome to Monarch Mystery! This curriculum for Kindergarten students is grounded in a local phenomenon about missing Monarch butterflies and is shared through the eyes of a young migrant girl named Violeta, who is currently living in Naches, Washington after moving from Mexico with her family to be farm workers. This unit, while anchored in science, is also grounded in practices of culturally responsive pedagogies that center, acknowledge, and honor the profound knowledge, experiences, historicities, and cultures of migrant and bilingual youth and their families and communities. This also allows the curriculum to be taught in ways that integrate other content areas like English Language Arts and Geography. Ultimately, science is taught within a respective context that promotes students’ sense of belonging and identities. Additionally, this unit, like all units from EarthGen, prepares teachers and students to apply their newfound knowledge toward a culminating student-led action project that supports their community and addresses local environmental challenges of relevance and importance to them.
