Life Cycle of a Butterfly (1)

This week the children had the opportunity to free the Butterflies they have been observing over the past few weeks. The children had the opportunity to watch as the caterpillars grew in size and metamorphosed into cocoons. Once the caterpillars were cocooned the children made predictions about what might happen and read stories such as The Very Hungry Caterpillar to investigate what might happen. Using literacy as a research tool. This week the children said goodbye to the butterflies as they took part in a release ceremony.
