Science Fair Bunnies

This story about the bunnies having issues with their science fair project is a great one for students. It's important that they understand that sometimes what you originally plan to do may not work out exactly how you want it to. It's important to be flexible, and be willing to come up with new ideas to adjust, and i think this book does a very good job of demonstrating that to young children.

This is a story about Clyde and Rosemary when their science fair project goes wrong. There bean plants have died, and they have a week to figure out what else they can do. His brother Jefferson shows off his project and is aggravated when their parents encourage Clyde because they know he will figure something out. Clyde soon realizes that he can use his tooth as a part of his science fair project. He soaks his tooth in tea for a week and Rosemary decides to soak her tooth in jello. Over time their teeth change colors and they win most original and most independent at the science fair! After reading "Lucille camps in by Lasky, I see similarities in the books. The illustrations are done by the same person and the pages are set up the show more same way. Pictures on the top and bottom of the page and words in the middle. The pictures once again are full of color and show emotion. Siblings seem to play a role in both stories. The older siblings do not get along or approve of their younger siblings doing something but by the end they get along. From a writing stand point, Lasky seems to base a lot of her stories around problem solving. As we saw with Lucille and now with Clyde and Rosemary they are presented with a problem in the very beginning of the story and by the end they have solved it. They find how to make the situation better instead of just being upset about the problem. I really enjoy how Lasky writes about problem solving because this is an important skill for children to learn! show less

This book is about two bunnies, Clyde and Rosemary who are doing a science fair project together. There is one problem, the plan they originally had went wrong and now they must come up with a new project for the science fair. Their first plan was a bean plant, but it died and now they are scrambling to find another project. They now must adjust their plans and come up with a new idea. They decide to do a project on how beverages stain teeth. In my opinion this is a better idea than the bean plant, but this shows that not everything goes as planned and that sometimes we must improvise and make new plans. This is a good book to read in a science lesson to show students that if they are doing a science project that their first plan might show more not always work, and that they must learn how to improvise and have a backup plan just in case. Epically in science not everything works out the way you want it to, and there are many times that students must improvise in their science fair projects to make it work. I loved this book and think that there is a life lesson in science from this book. show less

Review:The story is about how a unexpected and creative plan can accuatually work out and bad thing can open an opportunity to good one. Clyde found that his science-project plants died and he is very upset at first, but when bunny's father tells him how glistening white his loose tooth looks, he remembers Grandma's brown teeth and gets an idea that he would like to put three teeth in different substances for a week, and make observations for the project.They work together and advertise and gather three tooth and soak in grape soda, a jar of strawberry Jell-O. In the end, Clyde and Rosemary win a blue ribbon for their "Yucky Teeth" experiment and the next morning Clyde show more feels a lump under his pillow. He opens a package and finds a shiny coin, his tooth, and a note from the Tooth Fairy explaining that "When it's for science, you can keep both." it is a good story to teach kids that when one project failed, there is always another way to get through the difficulty by using their imagination and higher thinking skill. show less

After Clyde and Rosemary’s idea for the science fair doesn’t go as planned, Clyde figures out a way to incorporate his loose tooth. Together, he and Rosemary collect teeth and place them in various beverages in order to see how they stain teeth. This is a wonderful book to teach students about oral hygiene. After reading, students will have a better understanding of what certain drinks can do to the body and teeth. In addition, this book also focuses on working together in order to complete a task. Science Fair Bunnies is a wonderful book that incorporates science as well as oral hygiene.

This book is about two bunnies, Clyde and Rosemary, at their science fair. Their original project, a bean plant, died and their experiment was a failure. The two decided to use their loose teeth as "yucky teeth project" for the science fair. They make an experiment using their teeth and soaking them in different substances. cyde and Rosemary end up winning most original and independent. I think this book would make a wonderful addition to a classroom library, as it shows kids how to create and complete science experiments, as well as ways that it can be done.

I enjoyed reading this book, because I remembered when I entered into the science fair at my school. Clyde and Rosemary worked well together and was able to accomplish their goal. Even though their first experiment didn't work out they continued to try and never gave up. They recieved an award for their amazing project.
