The Lorax’s Warning

Primary 2 have been out on an autumn walk looking for signs that the season has changed. We know how important trees are and we can tell the season just by looking at them. We collected lots of things to investigate, leaves and acorns, beech nuts and branches.

 

However our Dr Seuss book The Lorax warns us what terrible things might happen if we don’t take care of our trees, our clean water and fresh air.

We explored this in our drama.

We were tall soft Truffula Trees waving gently in the breeze. Feeding the cute Bar-ba-loots our Fruits, when the grabby Once-ler came with family and friends to cut us down.

The brave Lorax told them to stop he was cross and proud and stern but the Once-lers would not listen.

They chopped down the beautiful Truffula Trees until there was not a one left… We were very sad.

But perhaps a tiny seed will see Truffula Trees again.
