Class Pets

In Room 13 we have had lots of creepy critters and creatures sharing our classroom with us.  We have had heaps of caterpillars and monarch butterflies hatching since we started school in February.  At the moment we have three new caterpillars so we will let you know what happens over the next few weeks - they're not normal still around at this time of the year so we'll have to wait and see.

We also have three frogs and a tadpole that's seems to be taking forever to make the change from a tadpole into a frog.  We discovered that a dragonfly only goes through part of the metamorphosis process (it's called an incomplete metamorphosis) whereas a butterfly and a frog goes through a  complete metamorphosis.

This year in our class we are looking after Mrs Cook's axolotl called 'Smitty'.  Don't stick you finger in the tank you might loose it!!!
