No doubt your child told you about our special visitor today. We had my daughter's new bunny Cleo visit for the day. She is a 4 week old Dutch Rabbit. It was an amazing experience. Of course the students loved her, loved seeing her, interacting and petting her. But, it also provoked some different kind of projects during our activity time. We encouraged the students to make use of the clipboards and record some observations, maybe some drawings, labeling or writing of what they saw. At the block centre, some of the students independently got to work creating a "habitat" for Cleo, ensuring that they had Cleo's needs in mind. At our plastercine molding centre, some made pictures of Cleo, and used some writing to accompany it.
