Butterflies

This week we began talking about the Life Cycle of a Butterfly.  The children did several activities to learn how an egg turns into a butterfly and how a caterpillar plays a part!  To actually see what we were talking about, we had 5 live caterpillars in each of our rooms.  We will get to watch the life cycle with our very own eyes!  Once the caterpillars turn into butterflies, we will release them on our playground and watch them fly away! 

But before we have actual butterflies in our school, we need to learn more about them!  We did several math activities with butterflies too, like learning about symmetry and patterns!
 After reading "The Very Hungry Caterpillar", we talked about all the fruit that he ate!  We then of course had to make some delicious Fruit Dip for ourselves to eat with our fruit!  Plus, our letter of the week is F!
