Conclusion
Oh, the Places You'll Go!
Just like Dr. Suess's book explains, YOU have the ability to become whatever and whoever you want to be! Remember this book and assignment if you ever feel discouraged in the future. This assignment is to help you realize that you have the ability to achieve whatever you set your mind to, and that although you will be on your own someday you can do it! Also, remember the writing skills you used on your poster for future writing assignments to help you improve each time.
