This week we were looking at the butterflies that live in the canopy layer of the rainforest.  We looked at the lifecycle of a butterfly.  First the butterfly lays eggs then the eggs hatch and out comes a little caterpillar.  Next the caterpillar grows bigger and makes a chrysallis around itself.  Finally the chrysallis opens and out comes a beautiful butterfly.  Then the cycle begins again.

We noticed that butterflies are colourful and they are symmetrical.  We made butterflies out of cubes.  Here they are.
