Rancho Lindo

 

In case you were not aware, the famous children's book writer of the Dr. Seuss books was born on March 2, 1904.  Although he is no longer with us, I decided to celebrate and honor him by reading some of his books to the kids.  The students also enjoyed board games and making some really cool arts and craft projects.  The students cut out their own hand prints to make Thing 1 & 2...his hat was made by using cookies, marshmallows and red candy.  The other fun activity will be where the students will learn about how a plant grows and everything that goes into planting and nurturing a seed.  It really is amazing to see a seed which is dead, come to life with water, sunlight and nutrients from the soil.
