Let's play Butterfly School! Today we are learning about the letter X. Let's trace the big X and the little x. X sounds likes like "z". Xandra (pronounced Zandra) the caterpillar has found two xiphosurans (pronounced Zif-a-soor-ans) at the beach! Some people call xiphosuran's horseshoe crabs because they have a horseshoe shape. Xandra has also found some seaweed and laid it out in the shape of an x! Let's trace the seaweed x.
