What is eating our plants?

This week we ventured out into our vegetable garden to find that something had been eating our plants.  We decided we needed to do some investigating! We went out with magnifying glasses and the ipads to see what we could find.  We discovered little green bugs ( we think they are caterpillars) all over the leaves.  We took a few back to class for a closer look.  We  looked through a special microscope that projected onto the t.v so we could find out what they looked like up close.  Here is what we saw...

I see...

stripes

green and yellow

pointy things ( I think they are legs)

spiky stuff ( I think that's hair)

dots- black and white

green slimy stuff 

ripples on it's back
