How can we help create a habitat for the monarch butterfly since the rain forests are dwindling?
Monarch butterflies love milkweed. This is where they lay their eggs and eat after they have hatched. If you could make a habitat filled with milkweed, I think that would attract them. Also, as always, we need to take care of our Earth! Do you have a favorite insect? If so, why? I think insects are marvelous, one of my favorites is the ladybug and the butterfly and the bee and the ant and the beetle and the wasp…I guess I don’t have a favorite! Do you have pet bugs? Yes, I do! As a matter fact I was just discussing some of your questions with my pet tarantula, “Tequila.” She is very happy you are all so interested in her and her family tree. How do you get your students excited about going on all these scary field trips? Actually it’s the other way around. My students get me excited about my field trips. And at times they may appear scary, but we are always safe and have lots of protections. They don’t call it the “magic” school bus for nothing! Why do you call it “The Magic School B
