Butterfly experience for Frog-class-kids

Posted by in Flight, Topics

The Frog-class worked on butterflies as an example of insects. Pupils could observe the development of caterpillars to butterflies very exactly. In class we have had special rules during this time because caterpillars don’t like noise and need a lot of silence.
For about three weeks pupils tried to answer themselves all questions they have had collected before, like “Do caterpillars and butterflies drink water?” “What do they eat?” “Do caterpillars have toes?” When all butterflies have emerged from their pupas we have had experienced an exciting time and had to say good bye, since we have learned: Butterflies live outside and can’t be pets.
