All About Me Book
One of the ways my students and I get to know each other is by making an "All About Me" book. The children and their parents pick the packet up on
"meet the teacher" night, a week before school starts. There are 11 pages such as This is me, This is my family, I like the color..., An animal I like is...,
In school I want to learn about..., I want to be a ______ when I grow up, I like to eat..., I am ____ years old, I am special because...
The family and kids decorate these pages any way they want and then send them back to school 2 weeks later. Meanwhile, the kids and I use watercolor
paints and bling to decorate their covers. I also paint one of their hands and make a handprint on the back cover. Our school name and year are written on
the inside cover. The covers are done on cardboard so they hold up and are laminated as well. The front cover has a first day picture of the child and the title
All About ___. I punch holes in the binding side and use zip ties to hold them together. These books are kept in the classroom all year and then go home
for the summer. These books are looked at more than the other books in our classroom. Just thought I'd share that idea.
