Adding books to your classroom library that your learners create is a great way to integrate writing and reading in your classroom. Here is how I bind class books in my room with a stapler and some washi tape.
First, I printed out these Native American books. You can find so many paper books online! Then, I bounded them together the same way I do all of the class books in our library. To do this, I stapled the pages of each book together.
Next, I put the washi tape on the edge of the book.
Then, I flipped the book over and taped the washi tape down on the other side. Washi tape does a great job keeping the book together!
Finally, I cut of the ends and the book was all done.
Now, we have some books to read for our Native American unit that you can find {here}. You can easily make books from your students’ writing.
