Bouncing Easter Bunnies

This month we spent time in readers work shop reading some children's classics like Little Red Riding Hood and The Tale of Peter Rabbit. We extended our lesson by creating bunny masks and role played as bunnies for math. To introduce the children to meters versus centimeters, the students put on there bunny masks and had a bunny hopping contest. Each student was given a meter string where they had to measure their hop. Some bunnies hopped less than a meter, and a few, more than a meter!
