"Green Eggs and Ham" is a funny story about Sam-I-Am trying to convince his friend to try green eggs and ham. I would use this in first or second grade as a mentor text for persuasive or opinion writing. I would have the students decide weather they would eat green eggs and ham or not and either per...

I do not like green eggs and ham I do not like them sam-i-am. What a classic phrase that most of us already know. This book is a great read for kindergarteners, 1st graders, 2nd graders, really any grade because it is a classic. This book will be great for teaching sequencing and also could be used ...

I read this book during Read for America week at my placement school for first graders and they loved it.

I love Dr. Seuss books and Green Eggs and Ham is one of my favorites. This book can be used with all grade levels in elementary school. I would of course read this book during Dr. Seuss week and/or Dr. Seuss birthday. We could read this book and also make green eggs and ham in the classroom.

I would absolutely use almost all of Dr. Seuss' books in my classroom simply for the fact that they are fun and easy to read, and they tend to give kids confidence in their reading and help them to use their imaginations. I would use this book specifically to talk to younger children about the impor...

A favorite classic of students that can be used across a much broader age range than expected! Written on a dare to create a story using only 50 words, older students are given that same dare. Great for choral reading, practice in expressionism, writing, and word sorting.

Didn't like it as an adult and I doubt that I would have liked it as a child either.

Reading Green Eggs and Ham to stubborn children is definitely a preferred alternative to torture. Introducing new foods to the very young can be a gruelling task, for parent and child alike. Seuss teaches that ‘new’ doesn’t automatically mean you’ll hate it. In that respect it kind of reminds me of ...
