Here's what we did...

First, we scooped out the food. This is mushed Malo from the Malo plant. The Caterpillars will eat a lot of this!


Next, we picked out caterpillars from their cup. They had been in the refridgerator for almost 2 weeks! They were happy to get out and have their own cup.


Here is a caterpillar in his cup. They will hang out here until they make a button at the top and form their chrysalis.


Next we did some observing. We answered the questions: What does their food smell like?, What does it look like?, What does it feel like?


We needed to keep our caterpillars at our desk so that we could continue to observe them as we wrote about their food. They do some amazing things!


We worked very hard on our observations in our science notebooks. We are such great scientists!
