Foldables: A Tool for All Ages

Here is a great foldable activity that you can use for any grade level and any subject. 
  • Use construction paper or index cards (my favorite) 
  • Nest each new sheet or card so that at least 1" peeks below the previous sheet/card.
  • Connect the individual sheets with tape or staples.

This  is one way to use this foldable:
The front sheet lists each title. When you flip the sheet, you see  notes listed on the back:
Foldables can be used for vocabulary, skills review and informational notes


I found this foldable example on Pinterest. I am planning to use this foldable with adults using 3x5" neon index cards and connecting the foldable inside a folder.  I've used it for the past several years, and its a winner because it's a great resource that condenses lots of information in one  folder.

How can you use this type of foldable in your classroom?
