A project: raising silkworms at school
Our school will start a fun project-based learning activity: raising silkworms. All Grade 6 students will take part in this project.
We will go to the school science room every afternoon from 4:00 p.m. to 5:10 p.m. to look after silkworms. Our science teacher will give each group small silkworm eggs at the beginning of March. Here are the growth stages(生长阶段).
Step 1: Small black caterpillars(毛虫)will come out of the eggs after a few days. We will pick fresh green leaves and feed the little caterpillars every day.

Step 2: The caterpillars will eat lots of leaves and slowly grow big and fat.
Step 3: Later in April, the fat caterpillars will stop eating leaves. They will make white cocoons(茧)and turn into pupae(蛹)inside them.
Step 4: Around mid-May, moths(蛾)will break the cocoons open.
Remember that we will draw the four growth stages of silkworms and share our diaries in class. We will also make colourful posters to show the silkworm’s life cycle.
