Let students make turtles from two small paper plates. Green Eggs and Ham Before reading, talk with students about foods that they like and dislike. While reading the story, discuss how the character that keeps refusing to taste the green eggs and ham feels. After reading the story, ask students to make predictions as to whether green scrambled eggs taste the same as yellow scrambled eggs. If you would like your students to be involved in the entire green eggs and ham cooking process, set up recipe direction cards at a few tables.
Students form an assembly line and rotate through each station, following the direction cards.
Measure 1 Tablespoon of precut ham into their bowl. Pour their liquid egg mixture into an unheated skillet or large bowl. Let students taste their green eggs and ham. Lots of rhyming activities go on this week as well- including rhyming bingo, matching rhyming pictures, rhyming riddles, etc. Make a graph and see which Dr. Seuss book was liked the most by the class.
