And then after about 15 minutes it changed to this:
It was wriggling around. Here is a video that Mrs Wallace took of it.
There were some baby caterpillars too. They are so small. Can you see them?
The crysalis changed colour and went black and you could see the orange wings inside. WE also had another caterpillar turn into a crysalis. Ava also brought in her own one from home and it changed too. We had caterpillars, crysalis' and butterflies. It was super exciting. We loved watching them everyday get bigger and bigger, and loved watching the changes. Here are some more photos.
We wrote about them. We wrote about the lifecycle, wrote a cinquain poem and created a crayon and watercolour resist piece of art.
Photos to come.
Here is a video that we watched off you tube about the lifecycle of the butterfly.
