This is the perfect team work activity to promote hard work, effort, team building and persistence! I like to play music in the background while they are working and coloring. The Land of the Free Poster is designed so that each student colors their own block/piece of the poster. When everyone is done, they have to work as a team to put the block poster puzzle back together. Each poster has an abstract background to make your poster “pop”. Your students CHOOSE the colors!
Students will need color pencils, markers or crayons, tape and scissors. This activity is great because they can put a personal art twist on their own block.

My favorite part is watching the kids work as a team to try to piece it back together.

How you choose to set it up in your classroom is up to you J Each student colors one “block” or section of a large poster. This product includes 25 “blocks” or pages to color. I do understand that some of you will have less than twenty five students, as do I. There are ALWAYS students that finish early that are eager to color a second page. I also like to sit down with my students and color a “block”. Print the file ONE time for each class on 8.5x11 paper!

New Feature: I have included a 6 question formative to complete as proof of understanding. Each “clue” also has one question to answer to ensure comprehension for a total of 10 questions. Many times students rush to solve the puzzles without reading or comprehending what they read. The questions need to be answered correctly before they can win!
Halloween Accordion Foldable Book Activity:
This is the perfect Halloween activity/craftivity to keep your kids engaged before or on the holiday! Students color pre-made Halloween pictures, write about Halloween or draw their own Halloween pictures. Let them use their imagination and creativity. Several writing prompts or writing ideas are included. The best part is that you can create your own accordion book. Each page has 4 ghosts on it. You choose which pages you want to use! OR you can allow your students to choose! Perfect for differentiation and different age levels.
This is called a “Create Your Own” accordion book because you can choose which page you want to start your book, which page you want to end your book and even if you want to add a middle page.
I like to print a few piles of each one and have students choose two- three pages, BUT one of them MUST have to do with writing. You do not have to tape sets together if you do not want. You may be happy with just one small accordion book with a set of 4 ghosts. The books may vary in length based on student grade level and ability.
There are 26 different pages/designs, so there are so many possibilities!
You will need:
Scissors
Tape (not glue sticks or glue)
Colored pencils, markers or crayons
Check out the preview to see all of the templates. They print horizontal on 8.5x11 paper.
