Good Morning Everyone!

We have been learning all about symmetry and the symmetry of our butterfly wings.  Mrs Woods has set you a symmetry challenge on your Learners Journal to find other symmetrical objects in your home or garden.

Please have a look and share your learning by posting a picture to your Learners Journal.

 

Have Fun!

Remember Mrs Kennedy has set a challenge for us all tonight.  Details can also be found on your online Learners Journal

 

Good Morning Everyone!

The weather was so sunny and warm yesterday that I decided that it would be a good day to release our butterflies into the garden.  We had 8 Painted Lady butterflies. Have a look at the pictures and the video.  Look at how pretty their wings are.  Do you notice that they have a beautiful pattern on both sides which is the same. This is call a symmetrical pattern.

Your challenge today is to make a symmetrical patterned butterfly.  Mrs Glidden, Mrs Pitblado,  Mrs Prentice and Mrs Duffy have made symmetrical patterns to give you some ideas.

Remember to share you learning with us on by uploading pictures to your Learners Journal.

Have Fun

Good Morning Everyone!

We have butterflies!   Our butterflies began to emerge over the weekend and we now have 8.  Have a look at their pretty colours. These butterflies are called Painted Lady butterflies because of the special colours and patterns they have. Can you how remember each stage of the butterfly life cycle? They have metamorphosed from an egg to a caterpillar to a chrysalis and now to a butterfly.

Your challenge today is to create a picture of the life cycle of a butterfly.

You can use natural materials, household items or even draw or paint.  Its up to you!  Have a look at ours below.

Please share your learning with us on your learners journal.

Have Fun!
