I picked something sort of easy for our first project. Something they would find fun, but incorporated some of the information they need to know: full name, address, phone numbers etc. Most of this was review for my 2nd grader but not quite memorized for my Kindergartener. I also wanted to introduce the concept of history in thier own lives before we jump into the history of everything else.
The minibooks/parts included:
- A self portrait
- My Time Line, downloaded from somewhere but I can't remember where
- a family tree- I c/p a clipart tree and drew the boxes I needed in Word
- Likes and Dislikes
- My Family
- Measurements accordian book
- graph of the above measurements
- a person shape book taken from an Evan Moor Theme Pocket book, downloaded from Googlebooks. Name, age, height, right/left handed, boy/girl, etc
Most of the books were made by me. It was pretty simple. But they enjoyed working on it.
I love that you included pictures in the timeline!
