Primary 1 has been learning about life cycles and how living things change and grow. This week we learnt about the life cycle of a butterfly and sequenced the stages in the process. We enjoyed watching a video about each stage and were very surprised to see the caterpillar shedding its skin before becoming a chrysalis. We also discussed the symmetry of a butterfly’s wings and used paint to create symmetrical pictures.
During numeracy time this week, we have be learning how to subtract one or two from numbers within 20. We have been using concrete materials and number lines to help us gain confidence.
