Dr. Seuss day 5/2011

We finished up the week by wearing green today.


The children listend to "Green Eggs and Ham" as we prepared the ham and eggs. I let the children scramble the eggs with food coloring then with a lot of teacher help we cooked the eggs then let the children eat everthing. After they finished eating they made a graph if they liked the green eggs and ham. Fortunetly all the children tried the eggs and majority liked them.






The children made their own green eggs to use for the graph.

Dr. Seuss day 4-2011

Everyone wore slippers today to continue our Dr. Seuss unit.



We made a class alphabet book after I read Dr. Seuss ABC book. During math the children measured each other using the big feet then they made a page for another class book.






The children finished the day by writing what they had learned about Dr. Seuss this week.

Dr. Seuss day 3-2011

WOW what a wacky day.



I had rearranged some things in the classroom the night before and the children came into a wacky room. Their morning work was to find and write all the things that had been changed.






Mrs. Shaw read Bartholomew and the Oobleck as I prepared the oobleck, we then let the children play with it as we discussed solids and liquids.





We then went to the library and listened to "The Cat in the Hat came back" by Mrs. Shaw's friend.




After lunch I gave the children an envelope with these words and a name (I made sure they did not get their own name) and told them it made a sentence and they had to put it together. They whole room was so silent as the children tried to put the sentence together, this was such a great lesson. After they put it together and glued it down they all came to the carpet and had to find the person who's name was on their paper and give it to them, then find their pictures.






At the end of the day we celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday by eating blue goo and pink ink.

Work Stations

These are the workstations the children will be doing during Dr. Seuss week. Some of these were made by me, some came from Donna Glynn at Welcome to kinderglynn and others from What the teacher wants.


The children have to find rhyming words in the Dr. Seuss books and write them down.


In the library they have to read a book and write the title, beginning, middle and end to the story and wheather they liked it.


They had to match the beginning sound to the picture.


After putting the pictures in the columns of rhyming and non-rhyming the children have to write the pairs in the appropriate column.




The children had to match the rhyming words then write the words.

The children listened to Cat in the Hat in the listening station and in computers they went to seussville.com.

We started our day by wearing our hats to our PAW pride rally.




In math we used eggs to write addition sentences.



Thanks to Donna Glynn from Kinderglynn for her Dr. Suess unit where this came from.

In Social Studies I read Cat in the Hat and the children wrote the sequence of the story.
