Quick Lesson Idea: Blank Paper Creation #1

Short on time and need an easy-to-make activity for your Grade 1 or 2 students? Check out my first blank paper creation. This little booklet will keep students engaged and also make them feel proud of the finished products!

Task Description

To make this mini booklet, each student only needs one sheet of blank paper. It has four sections on the inside, including four flaps. It’s a fun little book to make and read!

This little booklet can be used in various ways. You can get really creative in how you choose to use it. Here are just a few examples:

  1. Topic and Facts (e.g., Topic: trees; Fact #1: There are many different types of trees.)
  2. Main Idea and Supporting Details
  3. What I Learned about….
  4. All About Me

Materials Needed

  • blank paper (Note: I used 12×18″ paper in my example)
  • pencil and/or pen
  • crayons and/or pencil crayons
