We read The Lorax today and then did a character comparison between The Once-ler and The Lorax.
My class did an amazing job coming up with similarities between the two. We also talked about how we would save the Truffula Trees if we were given the last seed. I broke the students into groups-some worked on the bubble map and others created strips of paper about how to save the trees. We then met in the hall and filled them out!The best part is for tomorrow. On my way home from school I grabbed some potting soil and I also have ordered clover seeds for St. Patrick's Day. I decided to tell my class tomorrow that they are the last Truffula Seeds and have them each plant some. We are going to record their growth on the sheet below.

I can't wait to see their reactions when they watch the seeds grow into clovers.
Heck we had to plant them for our clover garden anyway!
