Watch Along to go with Dr. Seuss's The Lorax

This activity is a watch along to go with the movie The Lorax. This product is focused on the events in the story. Students will take doodle notes of what they see/hear. Then describe their doodle notes, and finally sequence the events in the correct order.

Doodle Notes: This is a great way to allow students to visualize what they are watching/reading. Instead of writing what they see, students "doodle" what they are seeing/hearing. This is also a great accommodation for students who might need support with writing.

I have also included an event bank if students need some more support with sequencing the events.
