Bishop Luers High School - Home of the Knights

Biology students were given 3 minutes to find as many "camouflaged" butterflies as they could in the Media Center today. Some hiding spots were very clever! #LuersSpirit

Students in Mrs. Goodin's and Ms. Brigg's biology classes met in the Media Center for an activity today. They colored paper butterflies in order for them to blend in to the Media Center walls/surroundings, representing adaptation. The goal is to give their butterfly the best opportunity to survive the "hunt" tomorrow. #LuersSpirit
