Still not sure what a lapbook is or how to incorporate one into your classroom?! You can check out my blog post here to read more.

Other Suggestions:
- Instead of creating a lapbook, include the 13-themed foldables into your Interactive Notebook!
- Coloring these pages does take some time. I suggest asking students to color them for homework and/or having them color during free time.

There are more foldables included than what will fit inside your students' lapbooks. Your students can specialize the folder any way they want, which makes it more special and individualized. This is great because no two INB lapbooks have to be the same!

My students enjoyed learning about the author. It has a lot for them to color and glue. However, there is text for them to refer to when answering the tabs. I had to find other resources.

This is a really fun activity to use during Dr. Suess week! The only thing I wish this included was a passage or websites to use for kids to be able to use in order to fill out some of the features.

I wish that this provided some simple comprehension passages or resources to support students in learning about him so they can have more text evidence to complete and individualize their lapbooks. I wish there were options not to have students trace some of the words. This is a great beginning resource to get students started!
