We looked after several swan plants in Room 18, and watched the Monarch caterpillars hatch and eat their way through the swan plant foliage. We had four chrysalis hanging on different branches. We came to school one morning and found a Monarch butterfly had emerged in the night and was sitting, rather wistfully, next to the window looking out.
Alyssa very carefully started to carry it outside, but it had other ideas . . . and fluttered to the relative safety of Luke's school shorts! He walked very slowly and gently outside where we placed it on a shrub by the Junior Green. When we checked at morning tea, the butterfly had flown away.
