Taking a look back .....Dr. Seuss Day!!!!

The last half of the school year was an absolute BLUR! I am going to try to flashback at all of the exciting activities that kept us BUSY BUSY BUSY the last quarter of school!

For Dr. Seuss's birthday, our school transforms into Whoville! It's the most exciting time of the year! Each grade level hallway was assigned a book to bring to life! Our hall was responsible for "If I Ran the Zoo." It is an absolute amazing book-- the animals, the places, the colors!!!!

Here is our interpretation:

My bulletin board! The students were given construction paper, pom-pom balls, google eyes, glue, and scissors. They could make any kind of animal they wanted! The students then gave the animals a rhyming name. They loved it!
 
The students then wrote about what they would do if they ran the zoo.  They loved being a zookeeper!!!  

Each room was designed from the book to look like a zoo cage (our doors had bars on them...I forgot to take pics! oops!)
 
In true Seuss-fashion, we lined the hall with polka dots, balloons, and tissue paper pom-pom ball trees!!!  
 
I dressed up as Gerald McGrew!

What are some fun activities that your school participates in for Dr. Seuss's Birthday?
