This week we finally released out butterflies. The children learned about their life cycle and were prepared for letting them go to find some friends.
one of the butterflies remained in our garden for a little while, this allowed us the opportunity to investigate the beautiful colours and patterns on their “symmetrical” wings. This led us on to creating more symmetrical images, we found items in our environment that have patterns on then but are also symmetrical. We also applied our skills through loose parts play, creating visual art that was symmetrical.
