Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!!!!! For years, we have all been delighted by the wonderful writings of Dr. Seuss. We spent all week enjoying some of his most recognized writings. We had so much fun this week with our crafts. The giggles that were heard coming from our room, while we painted each others feet, were like sunshine on a cloudy day. The children were paired up and each got to paint a friends foot and use their own foot as a stamper. This was such a great activity after reading, "The Foot Book." Now of course, we couldn't celebrate Dr. Seuess' birthday without making our own version of the very famous, red and white patterned hat, as seen on that naughty but fun cat! We also had fun practicing our rhyming words. We got a little silly generating a list of words that rhyme and did a fantastic job practicing clapping the syllables in our names! We turned oursleves into green eggs and voted which was our favorite Dr. Seuss book. My first guess would have been "The Cat in the Hat" would win but "Green Eggs and Ham" won the most votes.

Overall, this has been a fun packed week. We got to finally enjoy some time outside and look forward to sunny days on the playground. Thank you to those who have donated to our Tricky Tray basket. We will continue to be collecting for our basket next week.

Have a wonderful weekend!

Mrs. Gilberti
