Teachin' Cheap will show how to use inexpensive materials for a multitude of
student projects that can be used with any curriculum area, theme, or skill.
In fact, variations of each project can be used over and over throughout the
year. These easy-to-make projects require very little teacher preparation, and
students find them motivating and fun.
Teachin' Cheap is organized according to the materials used-bags, sacks, boxes, and paper. The reproducible shapes on pages 98-111 coordinate with many of the suggested activities.
The bag, sack, and box projects are perfect for organizing and storing student work. They can also be used for center activities and attractive 3-D bulletin board displays. There are five different paper projects: Flip-Flaps, Slit Books, Poof Books, Tri-Folds, and Fold-Overs. These projects allow children choice and variety in how they "show what they know" about a particular skill or topic.
The over 200 specific activity suggestions are just a start. You and your students can take these ideas, adapt them to meet your needs, and create new ones using the same inexpensive materials. This book is not the complete resource; it is only the beginning!
