If I were a Crayon

 Crayons. They're bright, colorful and as characters in books such as The Day the Crayons Quit... loads of fun and good humor!

Our new writing craft packet will provide you with template pieces to make a cute little crayon character booklet.

Students 

• color the templates pieces (or run on colored paper)
• cut and paste to make the crayon
• staple some lined paper on the back (provided)
• write about being a crayon

If cut and paste craft makes you cringe, a 'ready made' cover is ready with not too many bits to cut!

These pieces can be printed on color paper, or print them on white paper and ask your students to shade them. Add crafty details if you choose, to make this a more complex activity for your students.

This is perfect for back-to-school time or to accompany a reading of a book like The Day the Crayons Quit.
