New Idea for Writer's Notebooks!

I just saw this video from Archivers Web Page. Click on the link below to watch it. What a great idea to spice up classroom writer's notebooks. Idea 1: Students collect items from weekend adventures..(movie tickets, words from magazines, brochures, ribbon from a special item, etc.) bring to school on Monday and then attach to writer's notebooks and write. Idea 2: Have students fill up a brown paper bag give to them at registration, bring to first day of school, glue in writer's notebooks and begin to write. Idea 3: Students also bring a picture from a special event, glue in and write. Send me your ideas!
