We began the day with our morning message in the style of Dr. Seuss and we discussed what the day would bring us! The students began their writing prompts for their morning Language Arts. After I read aloud "The Cat in the Hat" the students were asked to think about the following idea, "If Thing 1 and Thing 2 came to my house what would I do?" The students did an amazing job and were very creative in their responses.
After completing the writing prompts students made their own Thing1 and Thing 2 by painting their hands to create the characters. They came out fabulously and were later used as our new door decorations!
At the end of the day we watched the movie The Lorax and discussed what style they noticed that Dr. Seuss had as an author. Later on this month we will be starting an author study so this will be a great reference for the students to look back on when they study other various authors.
Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!
Love,
Room 14
