Fact Books

After choosing a new topic, its important to dedicate a space for the kids to document their questions and new learning as they go throughout each learning experience. It could be as simple as a folder or some stapled sheets of paper, or you could do something bigger. If I really had the funds for it, I'd purchase a class set of Bare Books but instead, we use sheets of poster board (folded in half) and 12x18 paper on the inside.

Step One: Paint the outside of the poster board (the kids LOVE this part!)

Step Two: Decorate the front of the fact book with things relating to the chosen topic.

Step Three: Hang in the classroom and add in pages as needed!
