Today it was my groups turn to present! And we learn in Dr. Seuss' books that his illustrations are very curvy, straight, bendy, swirly, and loopy. We had the students create their own "villes" that resemble something that could be in Dr. Seuss' books. The first step was to back the white piece of paper because once the gluing process starts it would be hard to do so. We then reviewed various bends and folds of construction paper and reviewed how to glue them to a sheet of paper. We were instructed to have three different folds and at least seven pieces of paper in our assigned colors (warm, cool, or complimentary.) After they got the project done they got to choose the name of their town. It had to be a creative name to make it fun!
An extension activity for this would be having them write about their "ville". They would type it up and make it look professional so we could hang it in the hallway attached to their picture.
