Child: Group Story/Display appropriate
Written by: T. Natasha
We are all very lucky at An-Nur to have a pet rabbit to care for till the summer. Sameena
has asked us to care for her pet as she is no longer able to keep it in her home. The
children have been caring for the rabbit by feeding it, refilling the water, and making
bedding with straw regularly as well as giving him a lot of affection. The children have
grown to love our pet rabbit often bringing food from home to feed it.
Review of learning
It is always important to remember within these group experiences that each childs
learning is individual to themselves and often times differing although learning alongside
each other. Please refer to your childs individual story for their own individual progress.
