Many teachers, especially at the lower grades, enjoy making books with their students as a follow-up activity to sharing picture books. To this end I highly recommend you visit
MakingBooks with Children, Susan Kapuscinski Gaylord's elegant website on creating simple books with children. (And yes, my fellow English teachers, it is, indeed, MakingBooks, without a space between the two words).
In addition to her
free activities, she also offers teachers
tips on the teaching process, tools, and materials. Her
MakingBooks blog offers other terrific ideas, many of them related to the holidays.
Check it out. You'll be surprised how easy it is to create such wonderful books with your students.

The new edition of Susan Kapuscinski Gaylord's newsletter is out. The project this month is a
Giving Thanks Accordion Book. I love this idea and think William and I will make a few books on Thanksgiving morning, perhaps one for each person who will sit at our table, so that we can share our appreciation for them.
For more information about this project, visit
Gaylord's web site where you can learn about
making accordion books and
watch a video with detailed instructions.
