HOW TO MAKE AN EIGHT PAGE BOOKLET


This is a resource I return to frequently.  It can be used for so many things such as: creating non-fiction texts, story writing, maths facts or revision hints.  Many of my students have learned to make these booklets and enjoy using them.   

     1.     Fold one piece of A4 paper in half.









2.  Fold it in half again (quarters).












3.  Fold it in half again (eighths).









4.  Unfold the paper until it is in half.
 You will see fold lines marking the centre of the paper.
Making sure that you start on the fold cut the paper until the centre point.





 

5. Open the paper out carefully. 






 




6.  Fold it in half long-wise.  Take hold of each side of the paper and push it together gently until it forms a booklet.
