Butterflies
This weekend the butterflies decided to come out of their chrysalis.This is a picture of the empty cocoons they left behind.
Yesterday on our zoom meeting we released the butterflies.
Class Caterpillars
Day one: I received 5 tiny caterpillars. They are so small. The bottom of the plastic container is full of food the caterpillars will eat. Day 3: The caterpillars are getting a little bit bigger and starting to eat the food at the bottom of the container. Day 7: The caterpillars have been very busy eating food and getting bigger and bigger. They are also spinning webs. The webbing protects the caterpillar from many dangers. Caterpillars use the webbing to stick to plants, as the wind can easily blow them off the leaves. Caterpillars also use the silk to pull leaves around themselves to hide from predators that might like to eat them. Day 8: The caterpillars are crawling up to the top to start to make a chrysalis. After they make a chrysalis I will move them into a net and the will stay there until they become butterflies. I will post more pictures soon. Miss you and Love you! Mrs. Thurmond
