This is an activity to do during or after watching the Lorax! This is to go along with a science lesson about the process of photosynthesis, the parts of a plant, and the connection the movie has to photosynthesis.

Students will be putting together and labeling the process of photosynthesis and the parts of a plant. Then they will also describe how The Lorax Movie connects to the process of photosynthesis.

You can pace these activities in multiple ways but I would recommend having the students do the photosynthesis and parts of a plant activity before watching the movie. Then after they have watched the movie, have them complete the connect activity. But you can do it in many different ways.

This activity takes very little prep. Each student will need a copy of each sheet (they are labeled) and scissors, glue sticks/tape, colored pencils, and normal pencils. You could even have students work in groups!

This would be a great product to introduce and/or review photosynthesis and the parts of a plant. You could even use it as an assessment!

I hope you enjoy it! Please rate and review.
