The Very Hungry Caterpillar

We have been reading the story as our focus book. We have been learning all about the life cycle of a butterfly – From being a little egg, then a tiny caterpillar, growing, then becoming a cocoon and finally a butterfly.

We have looked at symmetrical patterns on the butterfly’s wings and explored different ways of making the wings the same on both sides.

We were very excited at the arrival of our very own tiny caterpillars! We will spend the next few weeks observing them grow and transform into beautiful butterflies.
