Dr. Seuss Week

B-7 has had a fabulous week! We've enjoyed learning about Dr. Seuss and reading many of our favorite Seuss stories. Tuesday was "Horton" day. We read Horton Hatches An Egg and listened to Horton Hears A Who. We did a couple of Horton activities, which you can check out on the website. On Wednesday, we listened to the story Green Eggs And Ham. We made our own green eggs and had ham, too. The kids thought it was super cool to make green eggs. They did a great job adding the 'green' and helping to prep and cook. Today we painted Dr. Seuss pictures in the style of artist Georges Seurat. Our reading story this week is "The Dot", so it tied together nicely. The kids enjoyed using q-tips to paint their 'dotty' Seuss pics. Tomorrow, we'll be reading One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. We'll be graphing, tallying and more using colored goldfish crackers. Yum :)

Next week, we'll be paying a little more attention to CivilWarSallie, who arrived on Monday. She's been quietly enjoying our Seuss week. :) We can't wait till she teaches us more about Lincoln and the Civil War.
