ELC Update

For the past week we have welcomed two visitors to our classroom. They are small, they have stripes and they both have a voracious appetite for leaves! The children are avid observers of these Monarch caterpillars, and eagerly share their understandings with their peers and educators.

"A caterpillar!" - Baxter

"Two caterpillars!" - Maxwell

"They crawl.’ - Oliver

"They have stripes; black and yellow." - Alfie L

"They’re teeny tiny…. where is the head?" - Matilda

"They’re sleeping." - Noah

"Yellow, black and white stripes." - Fabian

"Turning into butterfly." - Maxwell

To discover further information we are utilising reference books, ICT and our favourite Eric Carle story, ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar.’
