Letter Writing with Dr Seuss

My writing objectives this month are all around writing letters.  We will learn the convention of writing letters, how they are laid out and the special words that we use (dear, from…)

World Book Day is March 3rd and my class are celebrating Dr Seuss. We have been reading as many of his books are we can in preparation. On the day we shall wear crazy hats to school and all of our lessons will be on the Dr Seuss theme.  We will finish the day with  The Cat in the Hat Movie and a game of Pin the Green Egg on the Ham. I can hardly wait!!!

In keeping with this theme I have created some very simple Dr Seuss  Themed Letter Writing Templates.  The templates are a combination of fill-in-the-blanks and blank lines for children to write their own thoughts on.

I have created 5 templates, one per day, and they get progressively harder.  The first three are quite short and designed to ease children into letter writing.  The last two templates have lots of blank lines to allow children to use their imagination and creativity as they write to the characters.

    I absolutely love the Dr. Seuss writing templates but when I click on each one none will allow me to download. Am I doing something wrong?

    Thanks for sharing!
