Assign each student a letter, invite them to script the letter in the blanks on the page (paying attention to the proper case), then, armed with graphic art tools, brainstorm and draw as many objects as they can that start with that particular letter. To finish - print the cover of Dr. Seuss's own 'Amazing Alphabet Book' to use as the book's cover, mount each page onto colored construction paper, laminate, and bind each piece together to create a fantastic classroom keepsake book!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Foot Book\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIntroduce your students to a new form of measuring using foam feet instead of rulers and measuring tape.

Have students take turns lying on the floor while another student volunteer lays the feet 'heel to toe' in order to determine height. Keep track of each student's height for graphing - either draw a bar graph on the board or have you students participate to make a \"human bar graph\" (i.e. write height values on the board and have your students line up in front of the correct measurement). Compare and contrast the bars using terms such as \"less than\", \"more than\", \"most\", \"least\", \"average\", etc.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eI Wish I Had Duck Feet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscuss the special qualities a duck has that makes them well suited for pond living (i.e. webbed feet for swimming, waterproof feathers for staying warm and dry, etc.).

Before you begin to read, ask your students to pay attention to the recurring details the characters have in common (as well as the rhyming). Examples include: stripes, polka dots, crazy hair and skinny, long necks, arms and legs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce you've finished reading, direct your class through their drawings. Have them start by lightly drawing with a pencil a circle or oval just above the middle of the page in the center (make sure their pages are verticle), along with a larger circle or oval just underneath the middle of the page. Make sure you instruct them to leave some space between their circles before they begin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNext, have students add 'fur' around the circles\/ovals they just drew using zigzag lines. This, and all steps moving forward should be completed with a black marker. Then comes the addition of the features they heard about in the book - long, skinny neck, arms, legs, toes, etc. Be sure to tell students to stretch their creatures from the top of the page with the hair all the way to the bottom with the toes. And don't forget the extra details such as the stripes and the polka dots your read about! For an added embellishment and bit of whimsy, have students use wiggle eyes to complete the face.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the details have been completed, ask students to name their creation using a rhyme. Have them think about where their creature might be (the beach, the airport, at a football game) and use this location for the name. Examples Cheryl's students came up with: \"The Peach at the Beach\" and \"A Zee in the Tree.\" Allow your students to be creative. It doesn't have to make perfect sense as long as they've used a rhyme!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eComplete the pictures by filling in the background scenery details. The 'white' space should not longer exist when they're finished. Check out a few creations from Cheryl's class! Hanging these adorable pictures on a bulletin board or from the ceiling would make a SUPER CUTE display for Read Across America Day!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"caption\"\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Dr. Seuss There's a Wocket in My Pocket Art Activity Example 1\" src=\"\/\/supplyme-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/post\/drseuss-inspired-art2.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Seuss There's a Wocket in My Pocket Drawing Activity for Kids Example 1\" data-pin-hover=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cfigcaption\u003ePhoto Source: Teach Kids Art\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"caption\"\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Dr. Seuss There's a Wocket in My Pocket Art Activity Example 2\" src=\"\/\/supplyme-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/post\/drseuss-inspired-art3.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Seuss There's a Wocket in My Pocket Drawing Activity for Kids Example 2\" data-pin-hover=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cfigcaption\u003ePhoto Source: Teach Kids Art\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cfigure class=\"caption\"\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Dr. Seuss There's a Wocket in My Pocket Art Activity Example 3\" src=\"\/\/supplyme-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/post\/drseuss-inspired-art4.jpg\" alt=\"Dr. Seuss There's a Wocket in My Pocket Drawing Activity for Kids Example 3\" data-pin-hover=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cfigcaption\u003ePhoto Source: Teach Kids Art\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ccenter\u003e\u003cem\u003eBe sure to stop by to check out Cheryl's AMAZING \u003ca target=\"blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.teachkidsart.net\/\" data-ad-id=\"post-content-link\"\u003esite\u003c\/a\u003e today!\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"SupplyMe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":1734206423065,"sku":"A6972","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1418\/0968\/products\/drseuss-inspired-art1.jpg?v=1522782305"},{"product_id":"dr-seuss-cat-in-the-hat-craft-idea-with-template-freebie-a7211","title":"Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Craft Idea (with Template FREEbie!)","description":"\u003cfigure class=\"caption\"\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Dr. Seuss Cat in the Hat Craft Idea\" src=\"\/\/supplyme-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/post\/dr.seuss-face-activity.jpg\" alt=\"Cat in the Hat Craft for Dr. Seuss Celebration\" data-pin-hover=\"true\"\u003e\n\u003cfigcaption\u003ePhoto Source: Learn and Grow Designs\u003c\/figcaption\u003e\n\u003c\/figure\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe're quickly approaching the ever popular Dr. Seuss birthday week!
