Butterfly Flies Away...

Last Wednesday our first butterfly emerged out of its chrysalis.  The wings were floppy because they were wet.  We had to wait for them to dry.  After lunch we carefully put it on the honeysuckle plant outside our classroom. 
"It was soft, spiky and sharp when it crawled on my hand," said David. 
After school the butterfly had disappeared.  Holly thought it might have gone to the gardens.  Ben thought it might have gone to explore the world!

Sunflowers...

In room 10 we went up to the community gardens and looked at sunflowers.  We made sunflowers out of paper...we had to cut out petals  and a stalk. 
We planted them in a colourful pot.  We painted a back ground in blue.
It is like having a sunflower garden in room 10.

The Caterpillar Poem...

We have monarch caterpillars in room 10.   We thought about what caterpillars look like, what they do and how they move.
All of the words had to start with the letter ...c.
Can you spot your caterpillar?
