Scrapbook Page of the Week

Scrapbook Guidelines

Each week a scrapbook page is due on Thursday, they may be turned in early for a reward. Requirements for a scrapbook page are:

• 3 paragraphs about the same topic
• Pictures or photographs
• Type written – unless arranged otherwise with teacher
• Creative artwork/presentation of the page

Possible Scrapbook Topics

• Special events in your life: birthdays, holidays, learning to walk...
• Family members and friends
• Pets
• Vacations
• Favorite things - foods, television shows, toys, cartoons, musicians, books...
• Hobbies
• Sporting events – your baseball game
• The State Fair
• School

The list could go on forever. Scrapbook pages are best if they personal. One year a child did a different picture each week for the entire year about her trip to Italy. She had lots of photos.

Photo Options

If you do not have a picture and you would like to take one with my camera at school that can be arranged. Many children do pages on the animals in the classroom. I have a copier in the classroom to copy family pictures so they can be cropped if that is not available at home as well.

Materials

Scrapbook materials are readily available at Walmart, Michael’s, and a variety of other places. I keep a supply of scrapbook paper for students that need it for their projects.
