In the Classroom
Encourage students to write poems in the rhyming, rhythmic style of Dr. Seuss. To get them started, provide some keywords or themes (such as friendship, adventure, or imagination). After reading The Lorax, organize a class project focused on environmental responsibility. Students can draw or write about ways to protect the environment, and then create a "community tree" display on a bulletin board. Encourage students to explore Dr. Seuss's unique vocabulary by selecting some of his playful words and phrases. Using online tools like Adobe Express for Education, reviewed here or Book Creator, reviewed here, students can create comic strips that define and illustrate each word in context. Assign a STEM challenge where students use everyday materials (such as paper, cardboard, and tape) to build a model of Whoville. Have students create a podcast about their favorite Dr. Seuss book using a tool such as Spotify for Podcasters, reviewed here or Acast, reviewed here. Students can discuss the book's themes or their favorite quotes.You must be registered and logged in to add items to your favorites.
