Dr. Seuss Celebration

We had such a fun-filled week celebrating Dr. Seuss and his wonderful writing.  We had a dress-up theme to match one of his books each day.  We were also lucky to have a guest reader visit our room each day to read a Dr. Seuss book to us.  

On Friday, the 1st graders met with their 4th grade buddies to read a Dr. Seuss poem, talk about rhyming words and search for them/highlight them within the poem.  It's fun to study authors and their writing craft! 

The students are currently learning about opinions and persuading a reader by writing a letter sharing their opinion about one of Dr. Seuss' books and their reasons for why you should read it.  The 1st graders are really working hard!
