We enjoyed reading lots of great Dr. Seuss books this week, including The Cat in the Hat, Oh The Places You'll Go, One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish; I Wish I Had Duck Feet, The Foot Book, There's a Wocket in my Pocket, and Green Eggs and Ham. We were so thankful for our awesome guest reader, Mrs. Karla (aka Jack's grandma) who came in to read to us and share her love for reading. We also had time to read independently and with partners. We hope that every child in our class is developing a true love for reading.
One of our main focuses this week was rhyming. We have truly become rhyming experts! We played rhyming games and created rhyming hats to match the Cat in the Hat's. See if your child can read the "Green Eggs and Ham" poem to you in his or her rhyming folder! We also continued working on addition this week with our fish addition book to go along with One Fish, Two Fish. Of course, we also continued to review color words (this week by making fish patterns).
We had fun with lots of other activities! After reading Oh the Places You'll Go, we talked about what we want to be when we grow up. Check out the hot air balloons hanging on our bulletin board to see what your child said. To go along with The Foot Book, we made foot puppets and then measured them with different items. We also had fun independently drawing and painting a Thing 1 (or 2 or 3 or 10) to take home, as well as a plate with green eggs and ham to work on our independent cutting skills.
We continued our "Follow Jesus" theme for March... This week talking about the calling of the first four disciples (and reviewing who John the Baptist was).

We continue to be amazed by the great readers in our class! We hope that after this Read Across America week, everyone is reminded of how important it is to read! This week, see if your child can...
1. Help you read a rhyming book by having them fill in the rhyming word.
2. Count with you to 100.
3. Look for numbers they know on signs as you drive.
4. Add together two small piles of snack food to make an addition sentence.
5. Tell you your cell phone number. We have been working hard every week to memorize our mom's number in case of an emergency!
