The kindergarteners celebrated Dr. Seuss’ birthday this week. We enjoyed learning about the author & illustrator Theodor Seuss Geisel (Dr. Seuss) and listening to his books. Dr. Seuss wrote and illustrated 44 books. We noticed right away, Dr. Seuss’ stories rhyme. Each time we read one of his books, we found all of the different rhyming words. We worked a lot on rhyming this week. We even made our own rhyming book. We also worked on identifying two different kinds of sentences, asking (questions) and telling (statements). We each wrote a letter to the Cat in the Hat telling him about ourselves and asking him questions. Then we created a picture of the Cat in the Hat by following the given directions. The highlight of the week was when we made a special Cat in the Hat snack. We put a marshmallow with a cat face on a stick and added bananas and strawberry slices to create his hat.
