What's that you say?
We're reading Dr. Seuss books.
And we're starting today!
Do you have some Dr. Seuss books?
Send them in-don't delay!
Yes, we're reading his books.
Send them in right away!
May we borrow your books?
Can we look at them please?
Any Seuss book you have
Would fill us with glee!
Please print your name in
Every book that you send.
We'll send the books back
When we've come to the end!

Mailbox Magazine (2000)


March 2, 2004 - On the 100th anniversary of his birth, the U.S. Postal Service dedicated the Theodor Seuss Geisel commemorative postage stamp.

Download the Dr. Seuss Glyph from the Virtual Vine. I then added directions to have my students create the coloring glyph into a Stamp Glyph!
Celebrate Read Across America Day by sending a letter home to families and having students bring in their own Dr. Seuss books and have guest readers come in to read to your class. Yes, you may use my letter and change it to best fit your needs!

Green Eggs and Ham Listening Center

I have the book Green Eggs and Ham on CD. I had my students listen to the story on CD and record using talleys the number of words they heard that could be contractions on a talley sheet. I don't have the document on my home computer but it looks like this:

Two Words = Contraction
Talley Marks
I am = I'm  
will not = won't  
can not= can't
