Craft Lesson for My Many Colored Days

Seuss, Dr. My Many Colored Days. Illus. Steve Johnson and Lou Fancher. New York: Random House, 1996

After reading the book to the class we will have a discussion about emotions. I would use this book at the first of the year and the children will discuss what colored day they were having the day they the book was read. I want the children to be able to discuss their feelings, also to be able to illustrate their feelings in color. We will then make our own copy of My many colored days, it would be an accordion style book that the child will illustrate their own pictures the pre cut printed pages will have the words from the text. (Or the class can create their own words to their own book )
