Derby kindergartners put imaginations to good use

Dr. Seuss story sparks creativity

To mark Dr. Seuss's March 2 birthday, Bradley School kindergarteners read some of his books, including Oh, the Places You'll Go!
To help her students make connections to the book, kindergarten teacher Jenny Ames asked them to come to school dressed up as their favorite occupation.
Pictured are "nurse" Samantha Caron as she listens to the heartbeat of "firefighter" Madison Gallant.

I love this
any time children are encouraged to express themselves it's a good thing
kudos to their teacher for being so creative
