Dr. Seuss Themed Center Activities

Dr. Seuss Themed Center Activities

One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish! My students love when I create themed center activities based on a topic, unit, or holiday. When planning center activities, I want centers that allow my students to work independently and are engaging, effective, and easy to implement. Here are 7 Dr. Seuss™ themed activities that are perfect for your reading and math centers! Also, be sure to check out my Cat in the Hat Vowels Bulletin Board and my Horton Hears a Who Door Decoration to carry this theme over to your classroom decor!

To create these stretching word bands, simply hot glue adhesive letters to Dr. Seuss™ Stretch Bookmarks! Students stretch out each elastic band, sound out the word, and then blend the word together as they unstretch the band.
