Minibeasts

Sunday 25 May 2025

Caterpillars  

We have had some little visitors in Nursery and have watched them grow and form chrysalis. After the holidays, we’ll watch them emerge as butterflies and set them free to start the cycle again.

“They are having a big sleep in their cocoon!”

“It is changing into a butterfly.”

Minibeast Models

We’ve been working hard in our creative area, choosing our favourite minibeasts and using the junk modelling resources to make them!

Number 

We’ve been looking at the number 5. The children can find lots of different ways to represent 5.

We can also talk about the ways to make the number 5.

“A part of me is 1, a part of me is 4 and the whole of me is 5!”

“A part of me is 2, a part of me is 3 and the whole of me is 5!”

We’ve also enjoyed challenging ourselves to count super high numbers!

Help at Home: We’ve been finding out lots about minibeasts this half term. See if your child can share some of the facts we have explored.
