Week 1: Rabbit

1. Rabbits can be black, gray, brown, white. Then I gave them a picture of rabbit to color. They chose pencils themselves. We had a plush rabbit toy that was our favorite while we were learning about rabbits.

2. Read books: Velveteen rabbit, Peter Rabbit, and some non-fiction books with very cute pictures of bunnies.

3. How do the move? Do they walk? No. Do they fly? No. Do they hop? Yes. So we tried hopping like rabbits.

4. What do they eat? Vegetables, plants (especially clover), and flowers in summer; bark and twigs in winter

5. Describe a rabbit: long ears, strong hind legs, long front teeth (always grow, that's why rabbits need to gnaw on twigs); quiet animals, until in danger

6. Where do they live? In burrows under ground (can dig very well)
