More minibeast mayhem...


Grace was very excited to tell us that because she had left her bathroom window open over night the moths had been attracted to the light. She carefully carried her moths to school on the bus. We all had the chance to touch the dead moth if we wanted to. It was very furry, we were able to move the wings and see the mouth. Lydia suggested that we put it in the magnifying glass ''to see the scales on the wings.'' We put it on our observation table, Freddie enjoyed being a scientist in the morning. He wrote all about the living moth.

Foxes and Otter's class thought back over their minibeast learning.They all thought of one word to describe something new they had learnt. A lot of the words relate to caterpillars and butterflies. Can your child tell you what they mean?

  1. Hello Otters and Foxes. You have been so busy while I have been away and it has only been a few days. The butterfly release must have been so exciting.
    thank you for sharing it all so I haven't missed out while I was in hospital. I can't wait to see all your lovely writing and for you to tell me more.
