Beautiful and graceful, varied and enchanting, small but approachable, butterflies lead you to the sunny side of life. And everyone deserves a little sunshine.

It was a very exciting week in our classroom, our caterpillars have changed into butterflies!

| Right before it emerged |
I was able to capture one of the butterflies emerging from its chrysalis, click the link below to watch!
Finally seeing our butterflies has inspired the children to create butterflies using a variety of materials!

| Symmetry provocation (invitation for learning) |
 |
| A.Bh & S.P. made this picture using pattern blocks |
 |
| Using paint to again explore symmetry |
Watching metamorphosis has been incredible, and I think the educators are just as excited (if not more so) about the amazing change we have witnessed.
