Dr Seuss Week

We will be focusing on Dr Seuss next week.

I need your help!

I have a link to crafts we could do ~ if you all will get the supplies for the class.  You choose. 

I will link or put a picture up on foods (Hands on editable manipulatives) for next friday March 7th during 5th period.    The Country cottage ~ Dr Seuss activities

You are welcome to join us on Friday during the celebration.

The students will show and share their "Seussical" Stories and books.  They will create their own characters (human or animal), and the setting for the story.  The students will design the book and the pictures to go with the story.  The pictures will be in color (use colored pencils only).

The students will write a story with an:
       start (to hook the reader)
       rising action (tension mounting)
       conflict
       falling action (Conflict being resolved)
       Conclusion

Dr Seuss using rhyming, strange and exotic ~ lands, plants, animals and people and the story has a subtle message for the reader.  The students need to be whimsical, inventive, and imaginative.
