THEME: AUTHORS and SEUSS ON THE LOOSE

Each day we will read a selection of books and the classroom centers will involve activities related to these books. Authors will include Eric Carle, Bill Martin, Jr., Mo Willems, Peter Reynolds, David Shannon and

The letter of the week activities are Q is for quail and R is for read.

“It’s never too cold, too wet, or too hot,
To pick up a book and share what you’ve got.
You’re never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read with a child.
So join us March 2nd in your special own way,
And make this America’s read to Kids Day.”
-Anita Merina, 1997
