Life cycle of butterfly

The title of Unit 4 of the English worksheet that Chen Chen's school does is "A Butterfly is born".  

I am very impressed with the various art and craft works that the school does in order to inculcate the learning for the subject on butterfly

Craft on life cycle of butterfly.   Soya bean was used as egg of butterfly; pipe cleaner as caterpillar and shell pasta as chrysalis.

The school also organised a field trip to bring the children to visit Oh Chin Huat Hydroponic Farms at Nee Soon to let the children see the real buttery and see the stages of butterfly in their life cycle.   The guide brought the children around, explain the facts of butterflies.   The children also answered quizzes and brought back a folder with the information they gathered from the farm.

This postcard was included in the folder.
