Ein Geschenk aus Deutschland – A Gift from Germany

Thankyou to Laurie from Miss Sporn’s class for bringing along a special ‘show and tell’ to the German class. He was very excited to tell us that he received a special card and gift for Easter from family friends living in Germany.  We were interested to find out that the litttle book he received called ‘HaschenSchule’  (Rabbit School) was first written in 1924 and has been enjoyed by children in Germany for over 80 years.  We enjoyed listening to the story of  Hans and Gretchen rabbit who go deep in the woods to meet their old school teacher. There he teaches them everything a rabbit needs to know to survive, especially how to run fast and watch out for the dangerous red fox that waits for them. Vielen Dank Klaus und Brigitte. Die Kinder waren sehr erfreut , diese schone Geschichte zu horen.

  1. Hi Laurie, I really enjoyed the German book you brought in because it was about the rabbits going to school.

  2. Laurie was very lucky to get such a lovely gift from so far away. Klaus and Brigitte knew that Laurie was learning German at school. I am glad everyone got a chance to hear the story and enjoy it.

  3. Wow, how great to see Laurie and his story! I am Laurie’s Aunty and I love 3 hours away so it is hard to catch up with what great things you are doing at school in class. I have enjoyed reading the blogs and look forward to placing more comments in the future.

  4. Thanks Natalie. I agree that blogs are a wonderful way to keep up to date with what is happening . especially if distance is a problem It’s always nice when someone leaves a comment. Thanks again for yours. Petra James

  5. Guten Tag, Laurie, I think it’s wonderful that you brought in the story to show the other children during your German lesson. You are very lucky to be sent something all the way from Germany! Keep up the great learning and sharing.
    Auf Wiedersehen, Frau Smith
