I Love to Read Month and Dr. Seuss' Birthday
Wednesday kicks off I Love to Read Month ending on Friday, March 2nd with celebrating Dr. Seuss's Birthday. The following link is a wonderful resource of information about Theodore Seuss Geisel (aka Dr. Seuss). http://www.pbs.org/independentlens/politicaldrseuss/more.html
If anyone is interested in showing some videos about Dr. Seuss there are several available on Learn 360 in addition to the dvd titled the political Dr. Seuss that is available from the high school (this is probably most appropriate for students in grades 6-12). There is so much to learn from Dr. Seuss and his books and can be connected to history or character education that is taught in our schools. Did you know that The Butter Battle Book was in response to Reagan and the Cold War? There is so much to learn about Dr. Seuss and his political side.
