Learning about butterflies in P7.

Kyra from Mr Starrs' class wrote about their butterfly project.

'Our class got a pot with 5 caterpillars in it. They grew very fast and soon turned into chrysalides. In the chrysalis the caterpillar turns into a butterfly.  When the butterflies emerged we fed them oranges and grapes.  We released the butterflies yesterday on the 20^th of June because it was nice and sunny.  I got to hold a butterfly when we released them and they are as light as a feather.  It was a wee bit furry and had 6 legs that were quite long but over all it was really nice to watch them go from caterpillars to butterflies.'  Kyra P7CS
