In class 6, we are starting a story scrapbook, the children are very excited about it.
Each week, (either a Monday or a Friday), I will be sending home our new Story scrapbook, along with a box of crafting/scrapbooking materials with one child from our class.
While they have the scrapbook at home (either weekdays or a weekend), they need to use their imagination and the craft supplies to fill a page in the scrapbook with information about a book they have read, enjoyed and would want to recommend to others.
I have written further instructions inside the scrapbook:
I have also completed the first page in the book, based on a book I have already read and that we are currently reading in class together. Here is the example:
The idea is that as each child completes a page in the scrapbook, together we will fill the book with creative, colourful and engaging pages of book reviews that will encourage each other to read.
As this book and the craft box will be coming and going between homes and school, please encourage the children to take care of the book and box, keeping the craft supplies neat and tidy and using the materials fairly.
I really look forward to seeing the first page completed 🙂
Thanks,
Miss Taylor
