March 2: Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!

Dr. Seuss Day is always a fun day in 5th grade.

We wear pajamas and slippers, eat breakfast, watch movies, bring pillows and blankets for a read-a-thon, solve crossword puzzles, and do math based on Green Eggs and Ham. How's that for a great day?

I love Dr. Seuss books because they have such great messages. You can learn a lot from the star-bellied Sneetches, Horton the Elephant, the Lorax, the Grinch, and even Sam-I-Am. Theodor Geisel was an amazing man who did a lot for children's literature. This is my friend, Mrs. Wood, who teaches 1st grade. Our classes are buddies and we got to read Dr. Seuss books together today.
