October 22, 2004. Archived from the original on February 3, 2014 . Retrieved April 27, 2022.As children, many of us learn about the wondrous process by which a caterpillar morphs into a butterfly. The story usually begins with a very hungry caterpillar hatching from an egg. The caterpillar, or what is more scientifically termed a larva, stuffs itself with leaves, growing plumper and longer through a series of molts in which it sheds its skin. One day, the caterpillar stops eating, hangs upside down from a twig or leaf and spins itself a silky cocoon or molts into a shiny chrysalis. Within its protective casing, the caterpillar radically transforms its body, eventually emerging as a butterfly or moth. a b c d e Bird, Betsy (June 28, 2012).

[31] Children can engage in creative practice and storytelling by inserting their own foods and drawings into each day of the week. [31] Using the book's format, children can incorporate their own interests; thus, they are telling their own stories. [31] Sharing their renditions with peers, students again engage with storytelling. [31] Secondary school usage [ edit ] Explain that a butterfly is a winged insect. The butterfly starts as an egg and then hatches to be a caterpillar, which looks like a worm that will eventually grow into a butterfly. The caterpillar turns into a chrysalis, which is like a small protective house. On an early Sunday morning, "a tiny and very hungry caterpillar" hatches from his egg and searches for something to eat. For the following five days, Monday through Friday, the very hungry caterpillar eats through an increasing quantity of fruit: one apple on Monday, two pears on Tuesday, three plums on Wednesday, four strawberries on Thursday, and five oranges on Friday. Each day, however, the caterpillar is still hungry. On Saturday, he feasts on a picnic, and gets a stomachache from overeating later that night.

Once a caterpillar has disintegrated all of its tissues except for the imaginal discs, those discs use the protein-rich soup all around them to fuel the rapid cell division required to form the wings, antennae, legs, eyes, genitals and all the other features of an adult butterfly or moth. The imaginal disc for a fruit fly's wing, for example, might begin with only 50 cells and increase to more than 50,000 cells by the end of metamorphosis. Depending on the species, certain caterpillar muscles and sections of the nervous system are largely preserved in the adult butterfly. One study even suggests that moths remember what they learned in later stages of their lives as caterpillars. The Very Hungry Caterpillar Spinner: Book And Card Game. Univ Games. January 30, 2007.

Popular because of the 'collage' nature of the book, and the colourful illustrations, The Very Hungry Caterpillar can be a useful story to develop an understanding of the days of the week, food, and early maths skills in counting. It also portrays the life-cycle of butterflies, contributing to children’s learning aims of their Early Learning Goal of 'Understanding the World', which includes developing an understanding of natural processes, the nature of change, and the passage of time in general. The book contains "familiar sequences" or patterns when referencing days of the week and numbers. [32] These patterns help young readers read naturally and reflect their own personal knowledge about the world. [32] Furthermore, these patterns encourage word recognition strategies while reading, rather than beforehand. [32] Therefore, predictability helps establish understanding within context.
