Caterpillars!

29/1/2019

This year each class at ACS is looking at and talking about the concept CHANGE. In Room 1 we are using a variety of immersion activities throughout the year to introduce the children to the idea of change in different contexts. To start off the term (and continuing throughout term 1) we have caterpillars, and soon some tadpoles as well, to watch them grow and change over time.

We have two swan plants in the classroom with a number of caterpillars and eggs that the children are already very interested in watching throughout the day.
This morning our first caterpillar decided it had eaten enough and was ready to change into a chrysalis by forming a "J". Not long before the end of the day it made the change which was very amazing and exciting to watch. Below  is a speed-up video of part of this change. This was approx. 8 minutes of filming and is 4x speed.
