Save the World

So in class today we made crazy stories and tried to share them with the class. My favorite has got to be the last skit from the second round: too smart! At the end of class we were given the Save the World assignment, with only a sheet of yellow stickers to clue us in. I'm not the most creative person around, but I know my group will figure something out. Thinking about saving the world always makes me think of The Lorax by Dr. Seuss. I don't remember when I first read the book, but I do remember the first time I watched the movie. 7th grade science class with Mr. Hartz! He showed us the FILM STRIP! Everyone by that time was too cool for cartoons, and way to cool for Dr. Seuss, but I LOVED it! That was the first time I really thought about saving the world. We talked about recycling and reusing, it was the beginning of the recycling craze! So in honor of our assignment to Save the World please enjoy this video from Google. The quality looks pretty similar to the original film strip version I saw in class. I was given the DVD of the movie recently and it was nicely "cleaned up." However, I LIKE to watch it in all it's original glory, so I hope you can appreciate it too!
