MORNING MEETING~

Our greeting this morning involved choosing a card from the hat you see in the photo below; reading the name on the card; and greeting the person whose name is on the card.  Children greeted each other this morning by saying, "Happy Dr. Seuss Day, ____." and giving a rainbow wave.

 

 STORY~

Lots of silly, nonsense rhymes in today's Dr. Seuss story!

 SNACK~  

Children practiced their patterning skills when making their snack today.  They alternated putting red Jell-O and whipped topping in a clear cup to make a snack that looked like the hat on "Cat in the Hat".

 

 

DR. SEUSS ACTIVITIES~

At the Writing Station, children used the word "an" or "at" and added different letters at the beginning to make new words.  If time allowed, they also drew illustrations for the words.

 

 

 At the Alphabet Station, children matched rhyming pictures or rhyming words.

 In the Construction Zone, children worked on putting together Dr. Seuss puzzles.

At Games Galore, children played a Memory Game with Dr. Seuss characters.

 

 ~At Math Magic, children measured certain areas of the room with large plastic shoes.

 What would a Dr. Seuss Day be without enjoying some Dr. Seuss books?!
