Why we Chose to Homeschool

    We chose to homeschool this year. With the Coronavirus pandemic we thought staying home would be a better education without stressed parents, teachers and students. We also feel that when staying home I could get a more personal education. Homeschooling allowes me to focus on the parts of my education that I think im not doing well with or that I need more time to study. When learning at home I can choose subjects that am interested in and develop skills that will be useful for me later in life. Going on feild trips and doing our learning outside is more of a possibilty than it would be in school this year.

Two to five weeks after being born the larva is a full-grown caterpillar, the full-grown caterpillar is also just eating and getting ready to pupate (make a pupa, then chrysalis). Grown caterpillars with full stomachs will spin a little silk pad that they hook a hook covered a...
