METAMORPHOSIS!
Late last summer, Taylor brought a caterpillar to school that she found at home. Wee Friends created an aquarium home for it. Soon thereafter, the caterpillar wove a cocoon and stayed there until yesterday (we think!). While in the science center, Tami noticed the caterpillar had become a beautiful moth! We studied the moth and then took it to its new home in the crab tree!
Inside, a small group of older friends studied the parts of a race car and hunted around the different WF learning centers to see if they could create a car with various materials of the same shape.
After they collected/compared their materials, they attached them to a Kleenex box to create a 3 dimensional race car.
Tami worked with our new readers, listening as they read aloud.
Our garden is growing! Thanks to our Master Gardeners Paulina and Amy Crosson, we will soon be eating from our own garden!
Today for lunch we served black beans and rice, shredded carrots and corn, and banana/apple fruit salad.
Have a great day!
Thank you so much for sharing this….I love it. I have never seen such a beautiful butterfly! That last picture looks like Sid??
Ha! I would hardly call myself a Master Gardener. I’m learning from Paulina! I love that photo of the moth. Gorgeous! Sorry we missed seeing it yesterday. I love that race car project. What a cool idea to have them find objects of similar shape and then create their own.
thanks for sending me the Wee emails! but i notice that my granddaughter marta ciccone is not on any of these picture. my daughter tells me that she will be on the wee wee emails, so could you please send these to me instead? thank you. e.s.firchow, grandmother
Evelyn, Unfortunately, since the WF/WWF blog is one website there is no way to separate the notices. We do try to include “WF” or “WWF” in the title of the blog and the automated notices show that. Hope this helps! Tami
