IT'S DR. SEUSS' BIRTHDAY!!!


It's your Birthday, Dr. Seuss,
And we are here to say to you
Thanks for all of our smiles so bright
From reading the wonderful books you write!

(Sadly, I cannot show you photos of Dr. Seuss activities I have done in the classroom because of privacy laws, so here are some websites where you can check out pics of the activities being done.)
