Ferdinand vs. Pete and Peach

Today we read a booklet from the curriculum's phonics series entitled Pete and Peach.  The students were able to recall the story of Ferdinand by Munro Leaf and found some similarities between the two stories.  You can see one such similarity in these two photos:




Ferdinand is one of my favorite books.  He is a bull like no other bull and follows no other path but his own. It's always fun to find out what the kids think about the stories, and whether they liked it, agreed with it, and why.

The booklet entitled Pete and Peach went home today.  I encourage you to share the two stories with your child.  Then, discuss what is the same and what is different.
