Hope everyone had a great Dr. Seuss Birthday this week. Just had to share this: For Dr. Seuss' birthday this week, I read one of my old- time favorites, Bartholomew and the Ooblek to grades 1- 3. Many of my students were not familiar with this one. When I read books with lots of dialogue, I change the voices for each of the characters - so for the royal magicians I used a really low, mystical, monotone voice. One student commented during the story: "Those guys sure have strange voices, don't they, Mrs. Hawkins?" It seems he was so immersed in the story, he didn't realize "I" was "those guys." I loved it! -- Leah Hawkins, Librarian West Hurst Elementary Hurst, TX leahleah@attbi.com =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-= All postings to LM_NET are protected under copyright law.
