    Fun Facts about Dr. Seuss • Dr Seuss’s real name was Theodor Seuss Geisel but his friends and family called him ‘Ted’. • Theodor Seuss Geisel was born on 2 March 1904 in Springfield, Massachusetts. • Ted worked as a cartoonist and then in advertising in the 1930s and 1940s but started contributing weekly political cartoons to a magazine called PM as the war approached. • The first book that was both written and illustrated by Theodor Seuss Geisel was And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street. The book was rejected 27 times before being published in 1937. • The Cat in the Hat was written as a result of a 1954 report published in Life magazine about illiteracy among school children. A text-book editor at a publishing company was concerned about the report and commissioned Ted to write a book which would appeal to children learning to read, using only 250 words given to him by the editor. • Ted was fascinated by research into how babies develop in the womb and whether they can hear and respond to the voices of their parents. He was delighted to find that The Cat in the Hat had been chosen by researchers to be read by parents to their babies while the babies were still in utero . • Writing as Dr Seuss, Theodor Seuss Geisel wrote and illustrated 44 children's books. and These books have been translated into more than 15 languages and have sold over 200 million copies around the world.

  • The Effects of Dr. Seuss's Books on Elementary School Students' Phonological Awareness and Reading Attitudes
    中科大學報第 2 卷第 1 期 2015 年 12 月第 51 至 80 頁 The Effects of Dr. Seuss’s Books on Elementary School Students’ Phonological Awareness and Reading Attitudes Ying-Ching Fu1 Ya-Li Lai2 1Graduate Student, Department of English Instruction, University of Taipei 2Associate Professor, Department of English Instruction, University of Taipei Abstract The purpose of this study is to investigate the effects of Dr. Seuss’s books on elementary school students’ phonological awareness and reading attitudes, using both quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data was collected from the phonological awareness tests and the reading attitude survey, while the qualitative data was collected through semi-structured interviews with students and teaching journals. Paired-sample t tests were employed to analyze 115 participating students’ pretest and posttest scores. The results reveal that the twelve-week read aloud activities and phonological awareness instruction were found to have statistically significant effects in all the six parts of the phonological awareness test: rhyme awareness, beginning sound awareness, final sound awareness, phoneme blending, phoneme segmentation, and phonemic manipulation. The results of the survey on the students’ English reading attitudes, however, did not show significant improvement. Based on the data from interviews, most of the students liked to read aloud or to be read aloud Dr. Seuss’s books. The findings of this study proved the value of the utilization of Dr. Seuss’s beginner reader books in phonological awareness instruction, where the phonological awareness skills could be developed and enhanced in a reading context and through a series of organized and research-based activities.

  • The Nottingham Knight Writer 1St Grade Dr. Seuss Book Reviews 2016-2017
    Kid, you’ll move mountains! The Nottingham Knight Writer 1st Grade Dr. Seuss Book Reviews 2016-2017 March 2017 Dear Readers, The Nottingham Writing Exemplary Project marries rigorous curriculum work with student engagement. This year is more critical than ever because Arlington County rolled out a new writing curriculum, The Lucy Calkins Writing Workshop. The ​ ​ Exemplary Project provides professional development to Nottingham’s talented staff. However, student work is the Exemplary Project’s lifeblood. Thoughtful exercises motivate student writing, such as the Writing Quests, The Knight Writer, specific ​ ​ contests, conferencing with students, and other initiatives. The Exemplary Project and the First Grade team collaborated to create this book in honor of Dr. Seuss. His birthday on March 2nd inspired National Read Across America Day, and now you have something new to read! First graders thought of their favorite Dr. Seuss book (not an easy task!) and used the skills they’ve been learning in their Opinion Writing Unit to support their book choice. We hope you like their pieces! As you read, please remember this is student work. Imperfections are part of the process and our goal is to celebrate the growth and development of young writers. The ability to communicate thoughts and ideas through writing is an essential skill. Kindergarteners also communicate through illustrations that add detail to their stories. Please join us in applauding our Knights’ efforts, and encouraging them to reach their full potential. Many thanks for the PTA for their generous support of The Knight Writer! Write on! Mary Beth Pelosky, Principal Kelly Bergeron, Exemplary Project Coordinator Ms.
