Hello Friends!

Are you BEYOND excited to celebrate Dr. Seuss' birthday with your students on March 2nd?

I've always added a touch of whimsy and lots of color to my learning activities and environment, and Party City is one of my favorite places to find easy and stress-free supplies!  I was just plain "tickled" and positively grateful when a company representative contacted me earlier this month about using their products in my classroom! Their Party Kits are great for busy parents and teachers to make learning fun and festive without a lot of fuss!  I've featured some of my favorite decorations, tableware, character cutouts, costumes, and accessories that will help you throw a Party City 
Dr. Seuss Party your students will never forget!

BOOKS ARE GIFTS THAT KEEP ON GIVING!
Room 2 will be all "wrapped up" in reading our
favorite Dr. Seuss stories throughout the first two weeks of March!  This cute set of 
character cut-outs made the perfect bulletin board display for our
classroom library!

CUTE CHARACTERS
I can't wait to see what kind of descriptions my students come up with using
these character cut-outs I've put up at our Writing Center!  I hope 
they'll fill their journal pages with action words and adjectives that
bring their favorite Seuss characters to life!

WHAT WOULD SEUSS SAY?
My plan for these photo booth props is to take and print each child's picture,
 and then have them
create their own "talk bubble" project!

MAKE A MATCH!
I am not sure how this whole-group Word Work game will go, but my thought is to
write 11 rhyming word pairs on 22 balloons and distribute them to my students.  On the count of three, they will then move slowly around the room to find their rhyming partner, read their words and use them in a sentence, think of two other words that rhyme with their pattern, 
and then sit on their balloon to pop them.

If I am not feeling brave enough" to have them "hop and pop," 
or if the weather does not allow us to do the activity outside,
I may just tape the balloons to the walls of my classroom and send my little
learners on a rhyming word scavenger hunt!

Enough Dr. Seuss notebooks, rulers, bookmarks, mazes, kazoos, and stickers for 
eight children are included in Party City's treat bag kits!  

Morning work will be musical and magical, that's for sure!  

I will be wearing my
new "thinking hat" as well!

Don't forget to include your staff in the Seuss celebration!  We are setting up
a  "Hop on Pop" Snack Smorgasbord in the teacher's lounge on Wednesday!
It will feature different flavors of popcorn, soda, Swedish Fish, and 
Beezlenuts (aka M & Ms and roasted peanuts)!

For many years, my friend and colleague Pam has helped me coordinate our school's
Read Across America festivities.  Because she is retiring at the end of May, I wanted to
give her something to remember our rhyming good times.  I think
this door sign is the perfect Seuss "souvenir!"
