Seuss week is always a class favorite. We had a lot of fun this past week doing tons of projects to go along with all of Dr. Seuss' silly stories. Here are some pictures from the week:
Truffula Trees Bulletin Board!
My pride and joy for the week! The kids made truffula trees after reading The Lorax. We used green homemade playdoh, pipe cleaners and spikey pom poms (Found at Michaels!). The kids did a writing prompt about why trees are important. I thought this project was so adorable and I wanted to display it somewhere. So I thought all week and can up with a plan! I had the kids save me their juice boxes from lunch. We cut them in half and cut out one side. Then covered them with paper and made little shelves! The board looks so cute and the kids are really proud!
There's A Wocket In My Pocket
Kids create their own creatures that rhyme with wocket and make them fit in their pockets!
Oh The Places You'll Go
One of my favorites! We made hot air balloons by coloring with crayon and then using watercolors. Then the kids had tow write about if they could go anywhere in the world, where would they go? We had some cute answers. This one was clever... The grinches house.
One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish
We used this book as a math activity. They created a fish math problems. Using the same technique as above. Draw the pictures with crayons and then paint with watercolors.
Horton Hatches an Egg
We used this book to learn about oviparous animals. (Animals that hatch from eggs). After we did an animal sort, each child drew an animal that hatches from an egg and put it in the egg shell.
I hope you and your class enjoy celebrating Seuss Week!
