As part of this term's topic 'Down in the Garden' we have been looking at the wonderful bugs that inhabit our environment.

Creating our own bugs and butterflies in the woods gave us the opportunity to observe and talk about the different body parts of the creatures, count and check we had the correct number of legs and explore symmetry...

We also have some new additions to Darling Class...

We will keep you posted on how these furry creatures are getting on. We have already learned a lot - did you know caterpillars only have six legs? The others are called prolegs and help to move the caterpillar along, but they are not the caterpillar's actual legs!
