Happy Read Across America Day!

Dr. Seuss would have been 109 tomorrow and we celebrate his birthday with "Read Across America day!" Invite Dr. Seuss into your classroom today by offering your students an opportunity to read Dr. Seuss books. Turn off the lights and dive into the world of Seuss through "flashlight reading". My students will be having a thrilling day with several activities I found from some wonderful blogs (which I linked below). I am excited for this afternoon when my students will create Dr. Seuss towns in their table groups out of legos, beans, pom poms and whatever else I can find in my junky storage closet :). The students will then describe their towns by revealing who lives in them and write a story about those townspeople. Just thought I would share in case you wanted to join in the Seuss fun!
