I take that very seriously in my classroom. ha ha Even Gertie gets in on the action (God rest her soul). She sure is missed.

I have added a new Dr. Suess unit in my TpT store and wanted to share it with you. It includes everything you need engage your students in an author study. Students will learn ALL about Theodore Seuss Geisel and dive into 5 of his books! Included in this unit are extension activities, information on what it means to be an author/illustrator, writing, rhyming, math, and more! 

As an added bonus, students can create a Theodore Seuss Geisel craftivity to accompany their fact sheet. As they learn about this very creative man, they will record their findings and attach their printable to this craft. Viola! Your hallway display/bulletin board is DONE!!
