We painted  hungry caterpillar pictures.

 

 

We had some children bring examples of insects to share.

We made the different stages of a ladybug.  This is Brooke's

                                 The children all researched their favorite insect and then wrote a report about the insect.  This is Mary Beth's report on Ladybugs.

                     This is a chrysalis  that  Mrs. Michaels  sent for us to observe. The children loved  watching and waiting for it hatch out.  Finally one day it did! 

                          

  We took it outside and released it.  What a great learning experience.
