This past month, Janie was learning about the life cycle of a caterpillar. They had some in the classroom and watched them go from a caterpillar to chrysalis to butterfly. When the butterflies appeared, the class would take them outside to be released. She did observations of the creatures and drew pictures to make a book. Her teacher would dictate what she said about her observations too. Today, she got to bring the finished book home.
This is the cover of the book.
“Tiny caterpillars. There is one at the top.”
“They are climbing. They are eating.”
“They are sleeping. Then they will grow.”
“The butterflies are flying.”
