The Lorax movie and book are very popular with the 1st grade so we planned a project to tell a part of the story. This combines drawing and using a variety of materials. Students had fuzzy balls for the lorax's hair and beard, cardboard for the tree stump, and feathers for the truffula trees. Some wrote messages. Others got more modern and made the lorax a girl. Interesting telling of the tale and comments on protecting trees.This is a way to showcase the artwork being done in the classes I teach at the local private school. Fun stuff!
