Dear Mead Families
On
Tuesday we had two little visitors arrive in the Mead Room.
They
each had a long body, black, white and yellow stripes and lots of little legs –
we’re still trying to count them!
Patrick
– They’re having a rest, oh look, they’re moving their legs!
Sienna
– They turn into butterflies
Sam –
They’re baby caterpillars
James
– They crawl around
Jack –
They eat food
Benjamin
– They eat leaves
Alana
– They have a little mouth
Paige
– They have a sleep then they change
Ben –….
and then they just fly
They
had lots of food to eat from a bush called the ‘Swan Bush’…. and they have
eaten A LOT!
In the
past few days they have changed into big, fat caterpillars.
We
have been drawing what we see –
Liliana
– I’m drawing the egg
Paige
– I need to do his toes
Alana
– That’s the egg crack
Sam –
The caterpillar… I have to do a big line
We can
hardly wait to see the next stage in the life cycle of the Monarch Butterfly.
Have a
great weekend!
