As the school year begins, it's always fun to learn more about your students in a way that celebrates individuality and promotes creativity! Use this beginning of the year memory lapbook as a creative way for students to set goals, express their favorites, and have something to look back on for their school year in your grade.
You are learning about your students and they get to learn more about each other.
This would make a great activity for the first week of school or as something to showcase on Open House / Back to School night!
