Chelsea has been exploring the life cycle of the Butterfly at home!
Stage 1: The butterfly will lay her eggs onto a leaf. These can be round, oval or cylindrical.
Stage 2: The caterpillar hatches and works on eating the plants so it can grow.
Stage 4: The fully formed butterfly emerges, drying off it’s wings. Whilst we waited for each of the butterflies to emerge, we fed them fresh orange.
Stage 5: We set them free!!

Our children have loved listening to We’re going on a bear hunt this week! Encourage your child to act out each part to the story as you listen and read along!
A Little Experiment!!
Solid or liquid???
You will need:
A container
pour a little water into the container
add the cornflour a little at a time
mix until you have a thick ‘mush’
what happens when you put the spoon into the mush (it sinks)
what happens if you hit the surface? Is is solid?
touch it. What happens? The quicker you are, the more solid it will feel.
knead it. What happens? It forms a ball. What happens if you stop? It becomes liquid again!!
finally, can you drop a ball into the container? As it falls, what happens? It bounces and then sinks.
Science is amazing!!!!
