12 2007 © Livescribe, Inc., Confidential 12 Tip 2 Work from a script

13 2007 © Livescribe, Inc., Confidential Let’s Try Tip 2 – Use a Script EGG: A butterfly begins its life as an egg. When a butterfly egg hatches, the young looks very different from the adult. It looks like a very small worm with short legs. It is called a caterpillar or larva. CATERPILLAR: The larva does nothing but eat. It grows bigger and bigger until it is full size. Then it enters the third stage called the chrysalis. CHRYSALIS: A caterpillar spins a silk covering around itself for protection during the chrysalis stage. Great changes take place during this stage as the caterpillar becomes an adult butterfly. BUTTERFLY: A butterfly has four large wings and six long legs. The caterpillar has strong jaws for chewing leaves, but the adult butterfly has mouth parts that coil up under its head like a spring. 13
