Who doesn’t love “The Lorax?” All that cute, furry, “orange-nis” makes any child (or adult) smile. It’s so much easier to engage a student when they are already familiar with the characters. I started thinking…how could I incorporate The Lorax into therapy? A lot of my little kiddos have trouble with subject pronouns (he, she, they, it). Instead, they will say “Her is swimming.” I created this activity using this movie favorite to work on these skills.
Cut out the pictures and sentence strips.
Students match the corresponding pronouns to the pictures.
Fold down the top of the pronouns to cover the picture |
Surprise! The picture can then be used as a “visual prompt” for those who need reminded that he = 1 boy |
Come as you are. Leave encouraged.
I'd love for you to join my newsletter family so that I can start sending weekly encouragement as well as access to an entire library of free resources like this Student Self-Progress Report Sheet!

June 6, 2012 at 2:36 pmI a a new follower and just love your blog name and design. I found you when Mrs. Barnes blog gave you a shout out. I love finding blogs that are not a general education classroom blog because I get to see what others are dealing with and the ideas that they have can be very beneficial to general education as well. Thanks for sharing and good luck on your blogging journey 🙂

I just spotted your Lorax pronoun post (June 2012) and I love it! Unfortunately, it
is not accessible. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
