Read Across America!

We have been preparing for Read Across America by reading Dr. Seuss books and activities.

Horton thought us that "a person is a person, no matter how small."

We measured our foot with cubes, paper clips, and a ruler after reading "The Foot Book."

For science and art we learned that water color paint will not "paint" on crayon. We colored and painted fish bowls for "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish." We also graphed colored goldfish, but ate them for a snack.

"The Lorax" is teaching us how to care for our environment.


To celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday we read "Oobleck" and Mrs. Folder was able to catch some Oobleck that fell from the sky at her house yesterday.  This is what we observed from touching the Oobleck:

After reading several Dr. Seuss books we colored book marks of our favorite and graphed our choices.

We ended our celebration with Cat in the Hat "hat" snacks, but that were delicious we ate them before I could take a picture. We had a fun Dr. Seuss, Read Across America Day!

Martin Luther King, Jr. Weekend

We are loving the warm weather this week, but here is a little winter from our classroom:

The students did a listening and fine motors activity for MLK and I just loved how the students captured MLK.
