This is another story by Laura Joffe Numeroff. There are many forms of activities online I have found that go with these stories. I have found that many activities go with using a muffin tin with the numbers 1-6 written on the bottom and small cubes the students then have to place that many cubes in the right number spot. There is also a muffin ABC activity. Cut out muffins with the top separate from the bottom. The top has the upper case letter and the bottom has the lower case letter and the students must sort them.

This is another classic books and one of my favorites. The main character doe not like green eggs and ham and does not want to eat them not matter how hard Sam tries to get him to eat them. In the end he tries them and loves them. As a parent this story would be good to teach students to try and eat something first before going through all the trouble saying you do not like the food. You do not know you like it until you try it.
