BUTTERFLY
OBSERVATION 
JOURNALS




I had all the children take a close look
at our caterpillars
and then draw what they saw


we also wrote what day
we are on
(for having them)

DAY 6

















other morning work

Flannel board with
insects

The children enjoyed the
Hungry Caterpillar
board book and story pieces last week
SO I got it out again



MORNING MEETING

Lyla's turn
to care for
Little Puppy



Charlie was
attendance helper


EVERYONE came to school today!!

Today's story...
This story is not as familiar to the
class and no one had any guesses
by looking at the picture....


The Road To Emmaus


Zippy came
He brought an Alleluia Shaker
because he was so excited he wanted to 
shake his shaker and celebrate....

He asked the class if they had 
heard the GOOD NEWS>>>>

Everyone knew the GOOD NEWS


JESUS IS ALIVE
HE ROSE FROM THE DEAD

Then I told the children the story
about 2 men/disciples
were walking down the road to town called
Emmaus( On easter Morning--- they 1st Easter)
 from Jerusalem(about 7 miles)
They had heard that the women found
Jesus' tomb empty
BUT they really didn't
 understand what that meant


Then a 3rd man appears
(JESUS)
and begins walking with them
The other 2 men didn't know
it was JESUS
Jesus began preaching and telling the men
about scripture

When they got to town
the 2 men invite the 3rd man 
into their house their house
and to rest and to eat with
them 
When the 3rd man blessed and broke
the bread...

THE OTHER 2 IMMEDIATELY KNEW WHO
HE WAS ... BUT THEN HE WAS GONE


THE 2 MEN RAN ALL THE WAY
BACK TO JERUSALEM
SHARING THE GOOD NEWS
JESUS IS ALIVE

Today's helpers

outside time





There is a path in the bamboo
where the children like to play











Camden was our
librarian



Harrison was our

Entomologist today




we looked up a few facts about caterpillars:

Caterpillars have 12 eyes
about 18 days then caterpillars are ready to form their chrysalis
Butterflies make chrysalis 
Moths make cocoons
once in the chrysalis about 10 days before they emerge



Telling the class
we are on day 6
and the caterpillars have gotten
a lot bigger...

3 friends had not had the
chance to do Mat Man
(a few other friends just
chose to do it again)




we listened to the song while I put Mat Man together
then we listened again
and children helped




Then friends drew their self portraits

Mat Man encourages body awareness--

it is fun to see if they add more parts or
change how they drew their self
portraits after listening to the song and
putting Mat Man together






Also used it as an opportunity to
