I
truly adore Dr. Seuss. His creative imagination, his play on repetitive
and rhyming words, and his ability to make everyone want to read more -
from the creative Cat in the Hat to Oh the Thinks You Can Think! My
personal favorite is "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish" simply
because it was one of the first books I "mastered." I can still recite
most of that book with my eyes shut!
To celebrate his birthday we did five 30 minute stations. Each class got to go to
each classroom. Each classroom had a different book with a different
activity. The students had a lot of fun and our morning flew by!
Below you can watch a Smilebox that shows a student writing project. We read the Cat in the Hat this week and they had to answer what they would do if your mother asked you if the Cat in the Hat came into their house that day. Hilarious and very honest results! Oh the joys of teaching Kindergarten :)We are wishing Dr. Seuss a happy 108th birthday, and I hope that his stories continue to encourage every young student to read and enjoy reading! |
