Today We Celebrated Dr. Seuss Day!

We always celebrate Dr. Seuss birthday in March. This is a copy of the page we put in our portfolio this year. Each student got to wear the HAT

Smiled big because of that.

TO DR. SEUSS Theodore Geissel,

friend of my youth provider of wisdom,

laughter and truth

Yertle the Turtle,

the Cat in the Hat

The Grinch and the Lorax

and creatures like that

all taught me lessons

I'll never forget and I thank the good doc

I ain't forgotten them yet

Strangely named felines and odd colored fishes

If I ran the circus and other fun wishes

they led me to wonder about what I would be

when I got much older like a hundred and three

Would I ever like Green Eggs and Ham

Would I ever dislike that Sam I Am?

I found that the world was a funnier place

And his stories put many a smile on my face

And now I'm grown up and have kids of my own

and I read the good doc when I have them at home

and pass on the lessons I learned at his knee

though I'm not that much older just thirty and three.

A friend sent this poem to me in an e-mail...I don't know who to give credit! Some people are just so darn creative.
