Oh, the Places You'll Go

Citation: Seuss, Dr. (1990). Oh, the place you'll go.  New York, NY : Random House.
Category: Fantasy
Summary:  In Dr.Seuss book of rhyme, he take the reader on in inspiration adventure about the life journey you will take and all the ups and downs you will face.  He presents the wisdom that life won't always take you where you expect but it is up to us to make the most of it. The road maybe a bit shaky at times, but the book reminds up that we can overcome any challenges we are determined to face head on.
Classroom Use:  I will use this book to talk about rhyme patterns in text.  We will also discuss the journey's that life takes us on and how to handle things when they don't go as planned.  We will discuss as a class times that things didn't go as planned and how we overcame those hurdles, no matter how small.  Students will write using Seuss' ABCB rhyme pattern in telling a story about where they hope their journey will take them in life. We will make our own classroom Seuss book made up of their stories.
