A School Year
In Words & Pictures
Take photos during class events all year long and display them at the end of the school year on a hallway bulletin board or in a slide show.
Request from parents a disposable camera for each child. Record important school events and activities throughout the year by capturing individual students on film.
Ask students to write about their favorite things early in the school year and then again near the end of the year. Have them compare their writings.
Have students take turns writing descriptions of holiday celebrations or other class events and activities. Keep the collection of compositions in a binder. At the end of the year, copy the pages in the binder as a "yearbook" for students. Allow students to design their own covers.
