Read Across America

Last week we celebrated Read Across America in honor of Dr. Suess. Throughout the week we did a variety of activities involving Dr. Suess' many texts. On Monday we had our Read Across America festival. The children participated in a variety of activities and crafts hosted by our reading specialists and QCHS National Honor Society students. Before we went, we read The Cat in the Hat and fashioned our own hats. 


Later that day we wrote about what we would do if Thing 1 and Thing 2 came to our house. We had some very creative responses!  You can check out these projects currently hanging in our back hallway. 


And for our main event - The Suessasational Readover! This day is one of our favorites in 1st grade. Cuddling up with a book was never so fun!


I apologize for the hiatus in posting throughout February, but I am happy to report that we are back in action with more to share than ever!
