Dr. Seuss counting 10 Apples

This week we spent talking about the famous Dr. Seuss and reading some of the wonderful stories.  It is always fun to read Dr. Seuss as the books are very repetitive and the repetition is easy language for our little ones to grasp and talk about over and over.  We read 10 Apples Up on Top; One Fish, Two Fish; and Cat in the Hat.  The students loved counting the apples and counting the fish.  We watched a short video and counted all the apples. 


We ended our counting in math by practicing counting by rote and 1:1 correspondence (touch and count) through fun large group activities and reinforcing math tubs. We have been counting 10 apples up on top of our heads to go with the Dr. Seuss book. 

This past week we in library we listened to a story about Dr. Suess and the many changes he wanted to make about him but decided in the end he was fine just the he is red and white.

Hope everyone has a restful and fun spring break!  Please remember to move your clocks forward on March 12th one hour, as this is the weekend to “Spring Forward” one hour!


As a reminder, ECS was challenged for each family to collect 25 box tops and send them in during the month of February.  If every student brought in just 25 box tops each, we would collect over 20,000 box tops in just one month, which would be more than $2,000 dollars.  We also encourage everyone to ask extended family to collect them as well.
