2nd Grade does crazy birds

 I thought a project based on Dr. Seuss would be a natural for this group but more than half of them said they'd never read his books. We talked about the kinds of creatures that are featured in the Seuss books and the students set out to create unique birds. They had a selection of materials to create their birds. They used large pom-poms, chenille stems, feathers, fun foam, and mounted them on Styrofoam blocks. We tried to use school glue for this project but it was a failure. We wound up using double back tape to attach pieces to gather in order to complete the project. They still had a lot of fun with it and we're proud to show off the projects.
