Grade 2 found a caterpillar in the playground and gave it to us as they knew we were inquiring about life cycles. We gave it fresh leaves, some soil and a stick. So far it has made a chrysalis and we are waiting to see if it will turn into a butterfly or a moth.
A few days later Gracie found another caterpillar in the garden. She brought it up and we gave it some leaves too. It remains a caterpillar at the moment and every day we check to see if it has made its chrysalis.
Over the two week March break we left the chrysalis with Mr Aik our security guard. When we collected the container today we found a small moth inside. Unfortunately it was dead. We think it didn't have enough food or water to survive. We buried it in the garden.
