Community Brochure

When teaching about communities making a community brochure is a fun thing for the students to do. Bring in sample brochures so the kids can see what the finished product should look like. The students can add restaurants, favorite stores, nearby attractions, anything that makes their community special. Depending on your class this is a project that can be done on the computer. This is also a project your class could do for your school. The students would add things they think make the school special. This could be murals in the school, games played in PE, activities done in music class or maybe things they have done in previous classes they thought were special such as programs. This would be a neat way to find out what your students love about the school while teaching them the school is their community.
