To excite and engage pupils in the reading of this non-fiction text, A butterfly is born, we have ordered 18 sets of caterpillar kits from Oh Farm! They will be placed in the classroom and pupils will be tasked with the job of feeding the caterpillars with leaves from the potted plants.
This activity will also serve as our Language Experience Activity which leads up to the class Shared Writing Activity. We are certain that this common experience will help pupils to participate more readily in the class discussion and write the recount (how the pupils took care of the caterpillars and what happened to them eventually) with better understanding.
We will upload more photographs of this activity in the weeks to come!
