Learning about Lifecycles

As part of our ‘Let’s Get Growing’ topic in P1, we have been learning about lifecycles. We read The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle. We created our own parts of a butterfly lifecycle using collage materials. Some of us created repeating patterns on the leaves and cocoons and symmetrical patterns on our butterflies. Then we got ourselves into groups of 4 and put the 4 parts of the lifecycle together - the egg, the caterpillar, the cocoon and the butterfly. Finally we presented our lifecycles to the class.
