Last week, on the heels of the visit from the Easter Bunny, the first graders each brought a bunny in to school. They were already excited about the notion of being allowed to bring a special stuffed animal to school for the day, when their teachers let the cat (bunny!) out of the bag about the days activities! They shared stories about the Easter Bunny and other famous bunnies like Peter Rabbit and learned about real rabbits and hares. They then worked with a partner to create a Venn Diagram listing the similarities and differences between their bunnies. They also wrote a paragraph about what they learned about rabbits and created a sketch of bunnies - then added other signs of spring such as eggs, bugs, and flowers! Thanks to the first grade teachers for sharing these fabulous pictures with us!
