The Easter Bunny's Assistant Book Study Companion Activities

THE EASTER BUNNY'S ASSISTANT

Each year we get a good laugh from Jan Thomas' book The Easter Bunny's Assistant. It's the perfect read aloud for Kindergarten, First Grade, and Second Grade! Your students will LOVE how the skunk tries to help the Easter Bunny dye eggs, and how he keeps stinking up the place :)

THE EASTER BUNNY'S ASSISTANT BOOK ACTIVITIES AND TEACHING IDEAS

Easter Bunny's friend Skunk acts as his assistant, as they try to work together to dye some Easter eggs.

They begin with Step One: hard boil the eggs. But there's a little problem- whenever Skunk gets excited he...well...makes a stink. And as Skunk and Easter Bunny go through each egg-dying step, Skunk gets more and more excited…and smells worse and worse!

Your students will love The Easter Bunny's Assistant, and using these companion activities will help them learn important reading skills in a fun and engaging way!

It includes a fun booklet where students can describe, step by step, how to dye Easter eggs!

This book study unit is packed with activities that will help your students work on story elements, character traits, story retell, writing activities, vocabulary, problem and solution, making text to self connections, offering opinions and advice, making inferences, recognizing cause and effect, reading comprehension, and much more!

This book study can be used for whole class learning, during small group guided reading time, as individual student work, or as part of a book club. Copy a pack for each student and you're ready to go!

THE EASTER BUNNY'S ASSISTANT CRAFT
