Reading with Young Children: First Lady Obama Celebrates Dr. Seuss' Birthday


In honor of Dr. Seuss’ birthday, the First Lady read “The Cat in the Hat” aloud at the Library of Congress during the National Education Association’s Read Across America event. She was joined by Secretary of Education Arne Duncan and many students who sported red and white striped hats in honor of The Cat in the Hat.

Don't forget to ask your elementary school child how their school celebrated Dr. Seuss' birthday.

Check back here in coming weeks for information on an upcoming Lowell Educational Television video showing strategies to use when reading aloud with your own young children.
