Mary Kate! What a great blog that interacts the child with one of literaries greatest figures. he is one of the most beloved writers of the time and Mary Kate has addressed that in her blog! This is a great, interactive site that will help children to step up and take intiative in what to do with independent readings! I love that she has many interactive sites, a voting tool on the side, and a great and pleasant to the eye blog site. This shows me that when children want to find out about the author, and his works, they don't have to go surifng the web, and which can sometimes be dangerous, they can look up the positive sides of a blogger and read a. just a wee bit of the author, b. find out about the books, and all of the works he has made, and c. have inteactive sites to help them learn just a little bit more! Tops Mary Kate! Very impressive, I will notifiy Mrs. Taylor of your site so some of my first graders can get an insight of readings and literature!!!
ReplyDeleteI liked this blog because I really like reading Dr. Seuss when I was little. I can remember when my grandpa gave me a Dr. Suess book and I would read it all of the time. I always liked reading green eggs and ham too. I can remember a day during school when we actually got to eat green eggs and ham!
