Melody the butterfly
On Friday morning Mrs Brattle was calling the roll when something unbelievable and amazing started to occur.
We have been patiently waiting and watching our chrysalis develop and change color. This morning our beautiful Melody the monarch Butterfly emerged from her chrysalis.
We were all able to see her do this ( almost as if she was waiting for us to be ready). She emerge all crumpled up and then she pumped herself up and her wings smoothed out. Melody spent the day drying out on her plant and getting ready for her first flight.
After assembly Melody was sitting on the window sill, Mrs Brattle let her hop onto her finger and carried her to the open window. Melody then flew out the window and was off to begin her next step of the life cycle. Some of Kiwi class saw her flying over the field and landing in a tree.
Thankyou little Melody for showing us your life cycle and the metamorphosis you went through. We have learnt so much from you. We have 3 more chrysalis left to hatch, so stay tuned.
