- Thing 1 and Thing 2 visiting classrooms and performing The Cat in the Hat
- thematic lessons based on Seuss' books school-wide
- classes "Reading Here and There" (outside, under desks, on the bus, etc.)
- middle school students will perform Dr. Seuss' books in primary classrooms
For the month of March, we will continue celebrating literacy by:
- door decorating highlighting a Seuss' book and a character lesson.
- daily character quotes from Dr. Seuss will be read on the announcements
- students meeting the Read Across ISTC AR challenge for their grade level will be able to take photos in a Dr. Seuss-style photo-booth at the end of the month
