recreate most of them in a notebook or on white or colored paper.
All of the pages can be added to the lapbook project as shown in the
photos, or only use those items you want to use to create your
lapbook and use a spiral notebook for the other pages.
The following are photos of how the work can be presented in the
lapbook format. You can make yours look different if you like.
To create the lapbook use 3-6 file folders (colored are best),

glue them on until the entire newspaper is laid out.
Begin by creating a name for your newspaper. Type out the name of your
newspaper, in big bold letters and place it on the board where you think
it should go. Use tape or sticky clay to place articles and pictures on your
