Instructions/Procedures:

Introduction Time
 Begin the class by letting students know what we will be doing…
o We will be learning all about bunnies this week- today we are
going to create a chart about things we know about rabbits and
then start working on our own books!
 Ask students- if they have every seen a bunny, can they show with a
10 min
silent hand… Once Ss put their hands up recognize how common it is to
see bunnies, they are very popular and lots of them live around us!
 Begin by watching the short video all about bunnies- tell students to
listen for things that bunnies can do, things they are, and things they
have!
Body Time
Chart and Book  Once we watch the video, have students share
some thoughts/ideas to fill the chart- aim for
about 8-9 kids today. Let them know we will add
more on Thursday, so if they don’t get a turn, not
to worry!
 Once we fill the chart have students do a quick
body break before reading the book- it can be the
bunny one, or one from the website
18 min
 After the body break bring students back to read
the book- use the document camera so they can
see their pages
 Their job today will just be to colour the cover-
they need to also put their name! Ss should form
a thank-you line to collect their materials.
 When they are done, they can do puzzles or
stories
