All we do is read and write. Ms. Bunny Roo talks all the time. I want to learn myself. I want to touch, feel, and chew. Ya know, like an experiment. Wouldn’t that be great...maybe make something...I can be really creative!!

He made a project to show how project learning worked. With all his research and his project, Burt the Beagle went to school to see Ms. Bunny Roo.
