Organizing this event is one of the most exciting times of the year. I get to be crazy and silly with my planning. This year especially. Even though I planned it in a weeks time, it was a great success with lots of excellent readers and team members who were willing to be creative with me.
The invitation was a lot of fun to do. I got to be creative and funny as I wanted to make presenters feel a need to join us by not sending the traditional formal letter, but an informal invitation especially since I was organizing this event at the last minute.
Not only that, but I created a blue jello with multi-color fish in them for One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish. All delirious food in honor of Dr. Seuss.The presenters were not the only ones to enjoy the jello with fish.
One of the gifts the presenters received were a book marker made by ME! With the help of my students who colored the books and drew a Dr. Seuss picture on the back. Mrs. McCartney got this cute ribbon like material that made it look cooky and when placed on the back pocket like a wocket in my back pocket. You can get the book mark poem here for free.
Two of our wonderful readers in our Read Across America Day!
were here for the first time. I had seen this idea online, but
didn't know how or have the time to execute this project. So I asked Ms. Lauren. She did a fab job. She is so creative. I made some quotes to place on it to guide the presenters. It was one of the fan favorite decorations for that day. Some staff members even want to make it a permanent object in our school.Sayings:
Barber, baby bumblebee, come read in second grade with me.
To the office or library where will you go?
Big T, little T, what begins with T? Third Grade
Some chairs are high and some are low off to kindergarten we go!
Seems like fun? Well that was not all. My class got a special treat of Green eggs and ham!
I do not know why? But my picture does not want to come out right. But you can see how, my kids had fun eating green eggs and ham!.
