An Umbrella for the Lorax

An Umbrella for the Lorax

Learning Goal: Inquiry, Problem-Solving, STEM, Designing

    • Read Dr. Seuss' "The Lorax"
    • Present your students with the following challenge; design an umbrella that can keep the Lorax dry. 
    • Provide any necessary materials and assist students to design and build their umbrellas.
    • Once completed, test their structures by gently pouring water over the students' created umbrellas to see if any water leaked through. 

We are the Play Learning Lab, run by Dr. Angela Pyle at the Dr. Eric Jackman Institute of Child Study of the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education/University of Toronto.
