Change in the life of a butterfly: Mariposa

We explored the idea of ‘Change’ and what changes around us. We walked around the yard finding flores (flowers), el sol (the sun) and mariposas (butterflies). We loved participating in the the storytelling of La oruga muy hambrienta / The Very Hungry Caterpillar in Spanish, using props and repeating the names of fruits, natural elements as well as the stages of the butterfly’s life cycle. We really liked how easy it was to understand the story in Spanish because most of us knew it in English  and had pictures to look at!

We learnt the words oruga (caterpillar), mariposa (butterfly), huevo (egg) and crisálida (cocoon) and the names of fruits. We made an oruga and wrote the names of all fruits he eat in the story.

We played different games and learnt songs.

Thanks to Prep G from Blue group for putting together a great performance for assembly!
