Tried it Tuesday - File Folder Thank You Notes

This is my last week of school and so I wanted the kids to make

thank you notes for a few special people in the school.

Check out what we made in my...

 

My initial thought was for the kids to make cards on the computer.

But then, I went on Pinterest and found this awesome idea.

 

I took a file folder and folded the two flaps into the center.

We decorated the outside, hole punched and added some ribbon.

Then each student had to write a short thank you note on a Post-It.

 

They were added in an organized way and this is how it looked.

 

 

I love this idea because all the kids get to add a note and it looks nice.

We made these for the room moms, custodians, secretaries and lunchroom helpers.

 

Besides a thank you note, how else could this idea be used?
