Today you can read or listen to the story again and then we are going to ask you to put yourself into the Lorax’s shoes and tell us what would you have said to try and persuade the Oncler to stop cutting down the Truffula trees? Do you think the Lorax could have been more persuasive?

Granny/Grandson call – Mind the Gap
Age Group: Primary
Please enjoy the video below and an activity created by one of our Green-Schools friends, Arran Towers. Arran, with his organisation Mind the Gap, has been offering themed performances and workshops to schools going for the Global Citizenship themes, mostly about Fairtrade, to support their Green-Schools work for the Global Citizenship theme. This video will teach you a little bit about Fairtrade and about our connections to people all around the world through the food supply chain. Your activity is to create a paper people chain.
