The Cat in the Hat

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss!!! March 2nd is Dr. Seuss's Birthday, so to celebrate we are having a very Seussical Large Group next week.  Below is our learning card:


We are going to read the first part only of "The Cat in the Hat."  In case you don't have it at home, you can get a video reading here.


After reading it, we will each get to pick an item out of this box:


Once we have our item we will label it and then figure out different ways to balance with it, just like in the book.  We will have this fun music to move to as well:



Last we are going to toss our "Thing 1" and "Thing 2" dolls around the circle:


Whoever catches the "Things" will have to show us their object and tell us what it is.  It should be as fun as a ham-ikka-schnim-ikka-schnam-ikka-schnopp!  Our weekly handout is from Speech and Language Kids.  It gives some great ideas for working on vocabulary at home. If the file she provides includes pictures your child already knows, cut pictures out of a magazine with more advanced objects to work on.
