Casey Caterpillar becomes Beatrice Butterfly

For the last month we have had a Monarch caterpillar (known as Casey Caterpillar) on a swan plant in Kindle 2. It made itself in a J and then became Casey Chrysalis about 2 weeks ago. This morning when we got to school Beatrice Butterfly had emerged (this is called eclosion...... I learned something new today). When she had dried her wings and started fluttering about the classroom, we took her outside and set her free. Bye Beatrice!
