Dr. Seuss Day!

This week we spent the whole week learning how to read Green Eggs and Ham!  This story is personal to me!  When I was in first grade my teacher was contemplating holding me back because I was struggling with reading.  My mom took me to the library and I checked out Green Eggs and Ham!  Every Week!  My mom was so sick of it!  So...Dr. Seuss taught me to read!  I tell my students this story and they fall in love with the book too!

I made them these super cute treats!  Twist pretzels, white almond bark (melted in the microwave) and Mint m&ms.  They were delicious!

Our cooks serve Green Eggs and Ham every year!  Almost everyone takes hot lunch that day!  It's a big hit!

We made these adorable hats.  I had Things running around everywhere! 

Make a red headband sized to their heads.  6"x18" strips stapled together.  Glue blue strips all around the red headband.  Strips are 1.5"x18".  Glue Thing circle to the front. Curl the blue strips around a marker.

Adding 10 More (and Multiples) Game Freebie

I know this game is late in coming for Dr. Seuss but I think the kids would still like it!  There are two levels. One is just basic facts (1.OA.1) and the other works on adding 10 (and multiples of 10) (1.NBT.2 and 1.NBT.5).  I used these during our intervention class.

Click either game to get it for free!  I would love to hear what activities you do during your math interventions!  Do you have any games or activities to share?  Leave a link!

Dr. Seuss Celebration

What fun we had at our Dr. Seuss Celebration last Friday.  Here are few more pics.  We ended our day with our superintendent reading the The Cat in the Hat Comes Back.  It was only fitting since our principal started our week!

The last thing we did was eat cupcakes and red juice.  I had two juice spills that needless to say won't come out even after scrubbing - so I think no red juice next year.

All of you need to check out this new blog I found!  She is amazing!

Don't forget about my giveaway for my If You Give a Mouse Unit...  I'm giving 2 away.  Click below to the link!
