For those of you that are not daily enveloped in children's literature and activities...March 3rd was Dr. Seuss' birthday. It is an IMPORTANT and EXCITING day in any 1st grade classroom. His books are silly, fun, entertaining, well loved, AND they focus on TONS of literacy standards 1st graders are taught. So ONE of the MANY activities we did in my classroom was with Green Eggs and Ham. We read the book and and made a t-chart describing green eggs and ham before and after we ate it and categorized each statement as either a fact or opinion. (Yes, the chart was shaped and decorated to be a fried green egg). I know yall are not looking for lesson plan ideas but I had to share the green eggs we ate. It was some Redi-Whip squirted on a plate with a scoop of lime sherbet in the middle. It looked close enough and was something my picky students would actually eat! They LOVED it!!
