BUGS

The kids have had so much fun learning about bugs this week!
On Monday, we talked about ALL different kinds of bugs and learned a few facts about each one.

On Wednesday we talked about butterflies. We learned that butterflies can be so many different colors and that they can live all over the world. We also sang a song called "Flutter Flutter Butterfly" while the kids took turns being a butterfly. We also ate some butterflies for our snack, also know as bow-tie pasta. :)

Coloring our butterflies and no, the picture is not blurry...Kaeden's butterfly is really flying!

Here are some of the kids pointing at the butterfly that they each colored. We decided to hang them up in our classroom for a little while. The kids will be bringing their butterflies home next week. :)

Fun Friday was our "Bug Zoo Day." The kids each had a chance to find and catch some bugs. We caught 22 bugs! (plastic ones, of course!) The kids also had a lot of fun making real bug jars. (not just paper ones) They were excited to take them home and try to catch some real bugs.

Showing off the bugs jars that we made...

Next week we will continue with our bug unit and will be talking about caterpillars.
