Life Cycle of a Butterfly
We have really enjoyed studying our caterpillars and watching the amazing process of them turning into chrysalises and then emerging as butterflies.
We have used our caterpillars to support our classroom learning in Writing, Reading, Maths and Science. On Friday the girls loved our Maths unit on measurement and algebra... possibly because it ended with them munching down Caterpillar Rolls! We decorated our rolls with a very clever repeating pattern by using different seeds!
The following girls from the Dragonflies writing group wrote outstanding stories on the life cycle of a butterfly.

As well as making repeated patterns we have begun to look at symmetry and painted half a butterfly and folded it in half to ensure the other half was exactly the same.

| Kaitlyn, Millie, Sophia and Ria made these ones. |
We took our butterflies up to the Rose Garden behind the Chapel to let our butterflies go. Shimmery was keen to visit the girls pinnies before we said good bye.
