Instructional Ideas

  • Send scholars to different classrooms to administer the favorites graph, then examine their findings as a class  
  • Brainstorm book titles from Dr. Seuss to provide a starting point in creating the list of favorites
  • Do a literuaure study unit on the favortie book chosen to celenrate Dr. Seuss' brithday or Read Across America Day 
  • Schedule time to visit the library to search for, or download, books by Dr. Seuss

Classroom Considerations

  • Copies are required

Pros

  • Up to nine book titles can be listed for voting purposes 
  • Coloring each box to count as a vote allows for a wide range of age groups to participate 

Cons

  • The font can be difficult to read
  • The graph goes up to number 13; therefore, if you have a large class you may need to modify the page or add additional paper
