The Very Hungry Catepillar and Insects


4K 2013-This was my unit on The Very Hungry Caterpillar last year. I give them a lot of credit for all of this. They were asked to put the story in order on a sentence strip AND write the name of the food! We made the CUTEST caterpillars out of paper and also with paint using a balloon. We also made caterpillars using the letters in our name! I paired them all up to write what he did on Saturday, you can see some of them on the far right. What a great book to incorporate so many learning opportunities. My favorite blogger gave me such a great idea for next year using Eric Carl. I can't wait!

We learned all about Butterflies

We compared Butterflies and Dragonflies using a venn diagram!

...And Dragonflies

Who knew what kids could make out of patter blocks. I was amazed at some of the insects they were coming up with. Then we graphed our results! 

We created insects using food with our 4th grade reading buddies. SO MUCH FUN! When you heard their explanation of what they created, it made them that much better!
This one was a bee with 7 stingers!

This one was my favorite butterfly
