This was going to be my ONLY Dr. Seuss activity, and we ended up having a Seuss FILLED day....which I love. I wanted to do something with The Cat in the Hat's hat but wasn't sure what. I wanted it to be fun for the kids and also relevent, I thought word families, but wasn't in love with the idea. The pre-school teacher at our school has her class do self-portraits about once a month and this was around the time she completed hers. I was in the room when she was putting them away and it hit me....they can do a self-portrait of Cat in the Hat. I am sorry, I don't remember where I got the hat templet from but with a little searching (and I mean little) you will be able to find one. They did their hat a few days ago at the end of another activity and today we watched the Green Eggs and Ham sing along movie and did our self-portrait. I put a school picture of them in the corner to get the compairisen of how they really look to how they drew what they looked like. The kids also were supposed to draw a bow tie.
