Pop Up Book
Students learn the basics of making Pop-Up images with this playful process and incorporate them into a handmade accordion fold book, which opens from the front AND back. Their own 3-D images will add personal meaning to their stories. Hand drawn backgrounds or special photographs highlight
a meaningful event in each student’s life. Each individual book is completed with a colorful hard cover and tie closure.
