Youth Activity Archive

Activity Description: Assemble and decorate a custom half-page booklet to track daily homework assignments.

Items Needed:

• Printed Homework Planner Pages
• Blank pages for front and back covers.
• Scissors
• Hole punches
• Yarn or metal binder rings
• Coloring tools
• (Optional) Cardstock for the covers

Instructions (Estimated Total Time: 35 min):

1. Prepare the printed templates. (10 min)
   • Cut the printed template pages in half along the center line.
   • Ensure there are enough pages for the number of days each youth desires. Include a blank front and back cover page.
   • (Optional) Cut one sheet of cardstock in half to create a front and back cover.
   • (Optional) Explain how to use the template sheet.
2. Create the binding. (10 min)
   • Make sure the pages are stacked in the correct order. Stack the pages evenly and punch two holes along the blank left margin. Align the paper stack so the holes match up perfectly.
   • Secure the pages together using pieces of yarn or binder rings. Tie the yarn loosely enough to turn the pages easily.
3. Decorate the top cover. (10 min)
   • Use coloring tools to create a cover page. It could have a title with the youth’s name or just have designs and deocrations.
