Have groups add a third column to their charts and brainstorm details in this column about the animal or location that they've explored. Here's an example to share: How about you?" No, I am not involved in this situation. Please do not draw me into this thing, unknown narrator. We talk about how gently sprinkling our writing with onomatopoeia (when appropriated) can add to the descriptive value of our work. Just think how much more powerful the word, “BOOM!” is then “Thunder sounded in the sky.” El Sr. Brown es fantástico imitando sonidos! No solo puede hacer pop pop como un corcho o bzzz bzzz como un abeja, también puede imitar otros sonidos raros… como el mua del beso de un pez o el chomchom de un hipopótamo que masca chicle. Ideal para fomentar los juegos imaginativos a la vez que los niños aprenden a leer, ¡El Sr. Brown hace MUUU! ¿Podrías hacerlo tú? hará que los pequeños no paren de reírse (¡excepto cuando mastiquen!).

A game that can be played with this book in mind is calling out a sound and having others guess the object or person. Or just make up silly sounds and then try to put them into written words.

Printouts

In 1936 on the way to a vacation in Europe, listening to the rhythm of the ship's engines, he came up with And to Think That I Saw It on Mulberry Street, which was then promptly rejected by the first 43 publishers he showed it to. Eventually in 1937 a friend published the book for him, and it went on to at least moderate success.

I can't escape him. No. No. He has large friends. The hippo, arguably the most dangerous creature on earth, is his friend. Brown has one sedated.

With students, examine the list and identify what things make each sound. In one regard, students will be demonstrating memory by recalling the item in the book that makes the sound, but they might also brainstorm alternate items that make the sounds. For instance, the sound "Boom! Boom!" in the book is associated with thunder. However that sound might also be someone beating on a big drum. Once you have read and discussed the book, explain that you are going to read the book again and look for examples of sound words. You will also think about the reasons that Dr. Seuss used the words he did. Cinquain (pronounced "cin-kain") is a five-line poetic form, using a wavelike syllable count of two-four-six-eight-two. Mr. Brown is a sound-making wonder! He can not only pop pop like a cork and bzz bzz like a bee, but he can also make some very unusual sounds . . . like the mua of a goldfish kiss and the chom chom chom of a hippo chewing gum. A great way to encourage imaginative play while learning to read, Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You? will keep kids laughing (when they’re not chom chom choming)! Another fun writing and drawing activity for Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You?is creating a list of objects and people and the sounds that they make.

Overall, “Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You?” is a fantastic book for anyone who loves reading about sounds and loves reading Dr. Seuss books in general! I would recommend this book to children ages three and up since there is nothing inappropriate in this book.This fabulous and fun book from the one and only Dr. Seuss is ideal for teaching young children all about noises! In true Dr. Seuss fashion, the illustrations in the book are creative and fun. My boys love to point out silly aspects of a picture (“Look, mom! Gloves and shoes on bees!”). For now, Brown eek eeks like a squeaky shoe. A rooster crows. Mr. Brown crows, his eyes still shut securely. He is not aware of his own actions. Or he doesn't want to be. Why? Mr. Brown Can Moo! Can You?is one of our favorite Dr. Seuss books. All of my boys were introduced to this book at early ages. The various sounds plus interactive nature of the book has an engaging factor that appeals to young kids. In Session Three, offer students choices beyond the cinquain. Students may also compose acrostic poems, theme poems, or diamante poems using online tools.

We have both a board book version and hardcover copy. The board book version has been invaluable and relatively indestructible for those early years. The board book is in a slightly abbreviated form than the hard copy. When we recently reread the hard copy, my older boys pointed out the differences. (I was having too much fun making all the noises to notice.) Edición en español y rimada del clásico de Dr. Seuss de la colección Bright & Early Books ¡acerca de los sonidos! How about you?" The first occurrence of the question. The first invitation. Why are you in the bushes, Mr. Brown? What does this cow know that it should fear you, prepare to run, and put its tail in an unlikely direction?Mr. Brown can make any number of sounds with his voice - except, evidently, human speech. But who cares? It's a story. Along with such Seuss classics as "Hop on Pop" and "Green Eggs and Ham," this is one of those "must reads" to children. It's short, the examples of sounds are fun and varied, and the illustrations are engaging. The "Can you?" part of the title is really an invitation to the child or children to whom the story is being read to imitate Mr. Brown and/or the sounds he mimics.
