Symmetrical butterflies

Today we learnt about symmetry.  We learnt that it means 'exactly the same on both sides'.  We looked at where symmetry occurs in nature, especially on butterflies.  We created our own symmetrical butterflies using paint and carefully folding a piece of paper.  Here are some photos of our painting.
