Today and yesterday I spent 2 hours in the media center. Yesterday I helped process donated material and discussed the montly activities with our Media Specialist. Today I did the last section in the reading for fun unit. We finshed it up by discussing our favorite Dr. Seuss book (and why), and what we liked about the book we read, I Will Not Get Up Today.
Last week we located the spots discussed in the book on tactile maps and marked them with WikiSticks. Today we posted our thoughts on the class wiki and answered a few questions about our favorite Dr. Seuss book, our favorite place in the World, how we wake up daily, and what Dr. Seuss character we would be if we could pick one. After the session for a special treat we made extra durable origami cups for our water and we ate BBQ chips. The cups reminded us of the cold water being poured on the character's head, and the chips reminded us of one of the places mentioned in the book, Memphis T.N. (they have World Famous BBQ). A student requested that we read the Lorax by Dr. Seuss so on Tuesday April 13th we will read the Lorax and do something fun (we are just not sure yet what that will be)!
