Read Across America Week

Wow, we have had a very busy and EXCITING week!  Each day this week, we have celebrated Dr. Seuss in a different way.  We have read many Dr. Seuss books, worked on rhyming words,  made up our own Wacky Wednesday story, made and ate green eggs and ham, and of course dressed up like our favorite storybook characters.  We had a great time at our parade this morning and discussing our characters during large group.  

In March, we will focus on rhyming words as we study Nursery Rhymes and Fairy Tales.  We are looking forward to going to the Columbia Marionette Theater to see a performance of "Jack & the Giants" on Friday, March 16th.  

Thanks for all that you do!  Have a great weekend!!

Check out some of our photos from the last week.
