Emergent Readers: Dr Seuss


 
 
Dr. Seuss is known for his memorable rhyming stories that children love to read. Wacky Wednesday is no different. Sometimes children need more to keep them entertained and this book was no short of that. At each page there was a new thing to figure out what was wacky. The pictures are vibrant, some easy to tell what is wacky and others a little more tricky. The book has repetition, high frequency words and some new words that can be introduced. This book raises awareness and has students be observant to the words and the connection with the picture.

  1. I love Dr. Seuss !!! THis was one of my favorite books as child and my mothers favorite as well. This is one of the many books that i am not allowed to steal from my house. I love the high frequency words in the book for young readers as it includes many of the dolch sight words as well.

  2. I grown up with every Dr. Seuss book possible, but I have never heard of this book! This sounds great, plus its great for children to see what they haven't read at home! Its great that there are words that children see often as well. I will have to get a copy of that book!
