caterpillars and butterflies




the kids have been studying caterpillars and butterflies. they've caught 3 butterflies with their butterfly nets! they've also caught 2 caterpillars, a worm, a grasshopper (with which they scared our neighbor) and 2 snails... yuck! we've been reading through the creation story and singing the creation song from miss pattycake which all goes along with what they're learning at CBS. at our art class we made a collage of a caterpillar stamped from cucumber slices, a painted symmetrical butterfly, and a print of a "cocoon" (really a chrysalis). it's been a fun week of bugs!
