What educators are saying

My mentor teacher and I did this with our 3rd and 4th grade students together. She read the book and we talked about it then I introduced the activity and then they completed the activity. We walked around and edited their spelling and helped put everything together!
I loved that this activity was standards based, but it was also engaging for my students to create a craft based off of the book we read!

Description

Students will love creating this Hot Air Balloon Flip Up Craft for Read Across America Week or after reading the book “Oh, The Places You’ll Go" by Dr. Seuss. Simply, print pages on different colored cardstock and let the students mix and match to create a one-of-a-kind hot air balloon.

What's included:

►Templates to create a 4-page Hot Air Balloon Flip Up Craft

►Different questions and options for each page

►Colorful Poster with a quote from the book

►A separate page with additional Comprehension Questions

►Directions and sample photos

►For each page of the craft, there are three options to mix and match questions.

Directions:

►Read the story, Oh, The Places You’ll Go by Dr. Seuss.

►Print out the Hot Air Balloon pages on colored cardstock pages. I like to use different colored cardstock and let the students mix and match as desired.

►Have the students answer the questions on each page (circle) and share their answers with the class.

►Build the flip-up balloon so that each circle overlaps at the top and staple it at the top of the balloon.

►Tape 4 strings, twine, or ribbons to the back of the basket and to the back of the largest circle so that the word “GO!” is in the middle.

►Add a second basket on the backside to hide the strings and give it added support.

►Display your hot air balloons around the classroom or on a bulletin board, if desired. You can use the poster with the quote from the book as part of the display.

What a fun activity to accompany such an inspirational book.
