Make Room for Dr. Seuss

4th and 5th graders made a room inspired by Dr. Seuss's "Cat in the Hat" drawings, such as the fish, dress, ball, green eggs, cake, rake, and anything they wanted! They used a vanishing point to make the shape of their room. They did some great details, remember to click on image for close-up.
