Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!

Last week, we celebrated Dr. Seuss's Birthday in our classroom.  We noticed features of Dr. Seuss's books (rhymes, nonsense words, funny characters) and had fun making as many rhyming words as we could.  We played some fun Dr. Seuss themed math games that helped us practice our adding facts and we read Dr. Seuss books with a buddy!  We also read my favourite Dr. Seuss book, "Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are".  After reading the book (and laughing at the pictures), we discussed all the things that we are lucky to have and the things we are lucky we don't have to worry about!  The writing we did on this topic was a pleasure to read.  We really are a lucky bunch!
