Memory Books

Last night as I was supposedly working on lesson plans, I kept staring at my computer screen.  I'd check my email, look at Facebook, check a blog or two, and then stare some more.  I just couldn't think of anything I wanted to do this week!  We're wrapping up our Olympics unit and mass unit, and I don't think I want to start anything brand new with only 13 days left (not that I'm counting).   I wanted to do some out of the ordinary things that didn't require a ton of preparation and materials.  After wasting more time than I care to admit, I finally gave up and called it a night.  Thankfully the creative juices hit this morning, and I've thought of some exciting ways to culminate the school year, and I'll be sure share over the next couple of weeks.

My first project to get finished is a class memory book.  I'm printing my books tonight wanted to share what I've made with you.  There are 14 pages for students to complete, so I'm hoping to have my students complete two pages a day for the remainder of the year.  I'm printing my memory books as a booklet, so I don't have to use a gazillion sheets of paper.  I think you'll only need for pages per student if you print it as a booklet.  Just click <here> for your copy!

  23. Desiree,

    I just checked out the site and didn't see the pictures either. The name of the collection is "Silly Kids". I bought it last summer, so it may be discontinued, which is too bad, because it's one of my favorites!
