We read the book My Many Colored Days by Dr. Seuss. I love this book because it's very different than Dr. Seuss's other books, and it's very easy for first graders to read. We read the book and then did this writing project afterwards.
Today was a pink day because I got green light and played outside in PE and we read Fox in Socks today. :)
Today was a red day because I'm happy playing in PE.
Today was an orange day because it's a happy color because I have all of my favorite friends here.
How sweet!
This was the display of our writing out in our hallway!
We also read my absolute favorite Dr. Seuss story The Sneetches! If you've never read this story, you are missing out. I love the message of it, so we wrote about that story too after making our own Sneetches!
He teaches us that it doesn't matter what you look like on the outside, it matters what's on the inside.
BINGO!
Lastly, we read the Lorax and did a few Lorax activities to end the week! One of the main characters in the book is named The Onceler. While reading the book, you never see the Onceler's face.. all you see are his green gloves. I didn't get to see the movie in theaters, but from what I understand, you get to see him! We did an art activity where the students showed me what they thought the Onceler would look like behind the gloves!
It cracks me up to look at what their little minds think he looked like!
Our very last activity was a Lorax mask!
What a fun week of school!
