Symmetrical Butterflies

2nd grade students folded black construction paper in half and drew ½ of a butterfly using colored chalk. Then after closing their paper up like a book, they rubbed over the top with their hands to reveal a symmetrical light chalk reflection inside.  Using those marks as a guide, students were then able to draw the other ½ of their butterfly with symmetry.
