Warren County Technical School’s Child Development high school program and Sprouts Preschool kicked off “Read Across America” recently with a special visit from the Cat in the Hat character.
During the months of February and March, the New Jersey Education Association sponsors the program in which the Cat in The Hat visits classrooms all across New Jersey to promote “Read Across America” and to help build a nation of readers.
The Cat in The Hat is portrayed by retired teachers who wear a professional costume that stands seven feet tall.
The visit from the Dr. Suess character was kept a surprise to the preschool students enrolled in Warren Tech’s Sprouts Pre-School.
The high school students learn about the developmental characteristics of children as well as the physical, emotional, and cognitive development of children. The preschool students in return experience a variety of differentiated instructional techniques and individualized instruction as they prepare to enter kindergarten.
