Our book study for this week is called Muncha! Muncha! Muncha! by Candance Fleming and G. Brian Karas. Mr. McGreely has worked hard on his garden, and it is full of the ripest vegetables. But three bunnies are drawn to its lovely smells and tastes, so Mr. McGreely builds a fence to keep them out. It doesn't work, and Mr. McGreely's fences get taller and thicker until it would seem they'd keep any bunny out. Or would they?
From this story we learn how important it is to share, even if in some situations it can be really hard :)
We made a chart where we wrote what our favourite vegetables are. After, we took real vegetables, washed them, measured them, observed and discussed their colour, size and taste. The children were very excited to be open minded and try all different types of vegetables. After they tasted the vegetables, Jared and Sara said that we are risk takers and open minded when we try new things. On our chart we wrote down if we liked each vegetable or not. At the end we counted how many children liked the particular vegetable and we graphed the number of children. Their favourite vegetables were broccoli and red pepper.
