Week 31 & 32 Zoo and Insects!

Our class has had a busy month! Week 31 learned about zoo animals and we took a fun trip to the Birmingham zoo! Week 32 we have been learning about insects and we have watched our ants build tunnels in our new ant farm and we got our caterpillars in the mail too! The caterpillars are already growing and shedding their skins to get bigger. We are making a journal entry each day and recording the progress of the caterpillars. We have made estimates about how long it will take for the caterpillars to form a chrysalis and how long it will take for them to hatch out from the chrysalis into butterflies.  We are learning so much!

We made it to the zoo!
