But who solved this mystery? Was it the scientist or the American adventurer? The citizen scientists or the teacher or his students? Winged Wonders shows that the mystery could only be solved when they all worked as a team&#8211;and reminds readers that there&#8217;s another monarch mystery today, one that we all must work together to solve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Snippet:<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/asuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/wingedwonders_1.png?resize=329%2C403&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"329\" height=\"403\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11288\" \/><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/asuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/wingedwonders_2.png?resize=329%2C403&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"329\" height=\"403\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11287\" \/><br \/>\n<img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/asuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/wingedwonders_3.png?resize=329%2C403&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"329\" height=\"403\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-11286\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-889\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/asuen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/09\/stemfriday.tiny_.jpg?resize=216%2C104\" alt=\"\" width=\"216\" height=\"104\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">It&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/asuen.com\/stemfriday\/\">STEM Friday!<\/a> (<strong>STEM<\/strong> is <strong>S<\/strong>cience, <strong>T<\/strong>echnology, <strong>E<\/strong>ngineering, and <strong>M<\/strong>athematics)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Copyright \u00a9 2020 <a href=\"https:\/\/asuen.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Anastasia Suen<\/a> All Rights Reserved.<\/p>\n<p><em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">Know any parents teaching school at home due to the pandemic?<\/em><br \/>\nShare my <a href=\"https:\/\/anastasiasuen.com\/makerspace\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">makerspace (DIY)<\/a> articles published by the American Library Association.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Winged Wonders: Solving the Monarch Migration Mystery by Meeg Pincus (Author) and Yas Imamura (Illustrator) Booktalk: For decades, as the monarch butterflies swooped through every year like clockwork, people from Canada to the United States to Mexico wondered, &#8220;Where do they go?&#8221; In 1976 the world learned the answer: after migrating thousands of miles, the &hellip; <\/p>\n<p class=\"link-more\"><a href=\"https:\/\/asuen.com\/stemfriday\/winged-wonders-solving-the-monarch-migration-mystery\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\"> &#8220;Winged Wonders: Solving the Monarch Migration Mystery&#8221;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-764","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stem-friday-round-up"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pamhGQ-ck","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1203,"url":"https:\/\/asuen.com\/stemfriday\/the-case-of-the-missing-cookies\/","url_meta":{"origin":764,"position":0},"title":"The Case of the Missing Cookies","author":"Anastasia Suen","date":"January 28, 2022","format":false,"excerpt":"The Case of the Missing Cookies (Mini Math Mysteries) by Thomas K. and Heather Adamson (Authors) with Charlie Alder (Illustrator) Booktalk: Who took the cookies?
