Weekly Words

Welcome to Seussville!  All week we have celebrated the author Theodor Geisel (Dr. Seuss).  We began with Hats off to Dr. Seuss and wore our favorite hat and read The Cat in the Hat!  We learned all about rhyming words and -at families.  We even made our own cat hats.  

Fox in Socks was next, and it was so much fun.  Everyone wore crazy socks while we graphed the number of colors in our socks.  Most of our socks had more than 3 colors!

Tuesday, all dressed in green, we read Green Eggs and Ham, and we cooked green eggs ourselves.  Just like in the book, many of us did not want to taste the green eggs.  After a little convincing, everyone had a try and most of us thought green eggs were yummy! 

Wednesday was really wacky, and we made our own Seuss character!  After reading There's a Wocket in my Pocket, we made a rhyming word with pocket and created our own pocket creature.  We had zockets, mockets, shockets, tockets, and more! We also graphed the number of pockets we were wearing.  Jad had the most with 11!  He could carry about a lot of Wockets!   

Dr. Seuss' The Sleep Book was the class favorite.  While dressed in our pajamas, we celebrated Dr. Seuss birthday with a brunch.  Natalia's mom brought in pancakes for everyone. They were the perfect end to our Dr. Seuss week.  

It was so much fun celebrating Dr. Seuss' birthday!  We can't wait until the next one!  We hope you enjoy the slideshow of all our Silly Seussness! 





Next week we will be beginning our Cultural Awareness unit where we will learn about all the different countries and cultures that makes our international classroom so unique.  Be on the look out for an At Home Project.  This banner project is designed for you and your child to help show the class about your native country.  The banners are due next Thursday but are welcomed anytime before.
