1-2-3 Come Seuss With Me!

Anyone else out there "ob-seussed" with the works of Dr. Seuss?  I enjoyed some of his books as a child, but when I really appreciated his prolific writing, was when I became a teacher.  I could see first hand that his goofy pictures, silly words and rhyming technique caused giggles and helped my students learn how to read.

This year he'd be 110 and many will celebrate with a Cat in the Hat Day or by simply reading Seuss books through out the month. 

With over 60 titles to choose from, you could read a different one each day  as you join with others to "Read Across America."

To help you celebrate, I designed a few activities to put in centers or play games with, as a way to review a variety of standards.

Thanks to the wonderful graphics by myclipartstore.com they turned out adorable.  The puzzles help your kiddos practice counting to 10, count backwards from 10 to 1, as well as skip count by 10's to 100.  Click on the link to view/download the 14 Dr. Seuss puzzles.

In the Dr. Seuss alphabet packet   you'll find Thing 1 and Thing 2  ABC cards that show both upper and lowercase letters on the same card, as well as separate upper and lowercase letter cards, so that you can play all sorts of games like Memory Match or "I Have; Who Has?" 

Use them as flashcards, a border, cut them up into puzzles etc.  I've provided a 3-page tip list of all sorts of things you can do with them, as well as Kaboom cards to make games even more fun.  Click on the link to view/download the Dr. Seuss Alphabet Cards.
