Student Scrapbooks and a HUGE BACK To School SALE

As part of the Michaels #create2educate #sweepstakes, I decided to finally finish and post my Student Scrapbooks.   I make these every year with my students and both the parents  and the students love them! 
Supplies Needed from Michaels:
8.5 x 10 Colored Card-Stock Paper
8.5 x10 School-Themed Scrapbook Paper
Elmer’s Craft Bond Glue Stick
4.5 x 6.5 Scrapbook Paper
Other Supplies Needed:
A Camera or Smart Phone to Take Photos
Photos
My Packet 🙂
1/2 inch View Binders
Page Protectors
*I have included a parent donation letter in the packet to help with supplies and donations. 

I am not going to lie, these scrapbooks are not “print and go.”  The last few years, I have had a wonderful classroom aide who was in charge of putting them together.  She was amazing at the handprints.  For my years without an aide, I had parent volunteers come in.  I  also had the students do more of the gluing.  Student gluing means that you have to let go of things being perfectly centered!  Oftentimes, I would have the students finish up coloring the scrapbook pages whenever they were done early with something.  I kept all their pages in files according to their number.   This made it easy for a student to grab his/her file and work on a page that was not finish.  Ideally, you want to load the pages into the packet monthly, so that at the end of the year you are not overwhelmed. 

 For each month, I have included variations of the printable pages. There are holiday and non holiday themed pages.   I have also added a page for the students to write their names and draw themselves at the beginning and end of the year.  This is a great way to show growth.

Thanks for stopping by!   I hop you check out my store.  Everything is on sale.

🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers ! I hav 🎂Happy 20th Birthday @teacherspayteachers !

I have been with TpT since 2008!  I remember looking for a place where I could share my computer created resources with other teachers without having to set up my own website.  TpT was suggested.  I started off with a few Microsoft Word created resources 😬. At the time, the founder of TpT, Paul and his brother Dana, were single-handedly running things. I loved getting their newsletters.

In 2009 I was in a NY times article for TpT about who owns the copyright to teacher’s lesson plan ideas…the schools or the teachers.  This was not the article the author or editors told me I would be in, but that is another story! 

I stuck with TpT and creating resources and then in 2011, the site really took off and I met all these other amazing teacher-authors and finally met Paul in real life! 

As a single homeowner on a teachers salary, I worked nights and weekends on TpT resources just to be able to afford to live in my little house.  Then something amazing happened, my hard work paid off and I was able to get myself some breathing room.  I am so grateful for TpT for giving my life purpose and financial freedom back in those days.  Even though I am married now, I am so proud of myself for being able to own that little house (I still have it and rent it out) and buy my forever home in my dream neighborhood all by myself.

So many of you found out about TpT and so many more sellers joined.  It truly became the open market place that Paul envisioned all those years ago. 

TpT is still a big part of my life all these years (and hair colors) later.  I know when I eventually retire from teaching, I will be able to do TpT full time.  I love creating and sharing resources (880 and counting) with all of you.
