Making patterns

Making patterns with different materials
Can you guess the pattern?
Shorts, long pants, short, long pants,...

 We are using rods of different colours and sizes to make a pattern.




 We are using beads of various colours to make a pattern.

To make a pattern we have to repeat it again and again and that becomes  a pattern.



What is the pattern here?

purple, pink, purple, pink,...

Watching the life cycle of a butterfly

Watching the life cycle of a butterfly

The magnifying glass helps us see things bigger.

The caterpillars are munching and gobbling the leaves.  They are fat.




This is so exciting!  Our caterpillar has changed into a chrysalis.  We can see the green chrysalis with gold spots on it.


The chrysalis is transparent and we can see the orange and black wings.  Is it time for the butterfly to come out?

Wow! the butterfly is out from the chrysalis.  It is a monarch butterfly.
This is amazing.

The butterfly is opening the wings to dry them out.


Yippee ! the butterfly went flying out through the door.  We are happy.

A very warm welcome to room 3

We in room 3 made caterpillars as we are learning to write our letters.
                                         We are cutting circles with scissors.

                                            We are putting the circles over the letter C cut out.


                                    We drew eyes, nose and mouth. We glued antennae and lots of legs.
Look are caterpillars are ready!!
