Oops, duplicate account :/ Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 (edited) books out of them! I've been hunting down readers here lately and it just dawned on me (duh!) that MFW K has the sweetest, GOOD (not dumb, but they are funny) stories. I made my first book last night. I photocopied the story pics and cut them out, retyped the words (the type is too small IMO for a beg. reader) and cut those out. Then, I just got a piece of card stock for the cover and two pieces of reg. paper for the pages, folded them in half and stapled and the glued everything on. So CUTE!! I added "The End" and a few other clip arts to embelish. Just thought I would share. :D Edited September 13, 2010 by mommyjen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

campmom Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I had my boys make books out of them. I cut out the pages for them to use for the books then they cut apart the story page and glued onto the paper, they wrote "the end" on the last page because they love stories that end that way, and stapled them together. They really enjoyed making and reading their own books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.... Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Yeah, we're in the D-Dinosaur Unit right now. MFW K is great. My daughter really, really likes it. :001_smile: She sings that "I hear a in cat and man" all the time when she's playing. It's hilarious.

cbollin Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I've heard in MFW 's workshops that they suggest making them into booklets. And it's even mentioned in the manual on Day 5, step 3 section. But I do like your idea of a cover page. That sounds fun!:001_smile: and the extra clip art. I like that idea. sounds like fun. just rambling out loud.. my children didn't have a problem with the type size. interesting on the differences in children. -crystal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jentancalann Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 I thought that's what we supposed to do? Not being snarky, I just thought that was in the directions somewhere. The first one I glued on larger pieces of construction paper and stapled those, but ever since I've just stapled the cut out squares themselves. Dd really enjoys them.
