Chrysalides

Our caterpillars have now retreated into their chrysalides and we have moved them from their cosy cups to their hatching habitat.

Here are some pictures of them in their new airy home.

Science Exploration

P1b have been learning all about the human skeleton.

Yesterday afternoon we investigated and explored a range activities that helped us to understand how the skeleton gives us support and protects our organs.

          

Symmetrical Sally or Flutterpuff?

Mrs Hughes was so excited to be asked to name one of our caterpillars that she came up with two options.

Symmetrical Sally or Flutterpuff…which one should we choose?

Caterpillars: Day Three

We were delighted to welcome Mrs Tees and Miss Cumming to our class this morning.

They were each invited to name a caterpillar, so we are pleased to announce Angus and Rainbow Sparkles Unicorn III (Uni for short)…..

Caterpillar Update

Over the next 7 to 14 days our caterpillars will shed their exoskeletons four times and grow more than 10 times their original size!

The picture below shows how tiny they are currently.

To make our tiny caterpillars feel more at home we have named them all. Please say ‘hello’ to:

Butterfly Life Cycle

We are very excited to introduce the newest members of Primary One!

Today we welcomed some caterpillars that we will look after over the coming weeks.  This will allow us to witness the wonder of the butterfly life cycle while learning about science, numeracy, literacy and environmental awareness.

We hope to raise our very own Painted Lady Butterflies which we will release in our new Eco Garden when they have emerged!

You can follow the progress of our new friends on our Primary One class blog.
