POP-UP Memorial Day Craft / Veterans Day Craft with Writing Activity
This is a great craft for students to complete for Memorial Day (and I included templates for Veterans Day!) So, two activities in one!
This craft has two main components:
- A base (made out of one piece of paper, 8 1/2 x 14) I have provided two base templates - Memorial Day and Veterans Day
- POP-UPs - 9 options to choose from, including male and female representation, graphics for Army, Navy, Marines, Air Force. On the back of each POP-UP is a simple writing activity.
Includes step-by-step instructions, graphics and templates needed to create this POP-UP Memorial Day or Veterans Day Craft.
Requires: Paper (I used regular photocopy paper but light cardstock is recommended), glue, coloring pencils and scissors.
The POP-UP Craft folds flat for students to easily transport home or expands so that it can be displayed in the classroom. Don't forget to print on 8 1/2 x 14 (legal size) paper.

all are set up the same way:
There is an animal hiding behind the barn door. Students are given 3 clues to guess who is in the barn. There is a box for students to guess their answer - then they remove the barn door to reveal what farm animal it is.
Fun and engaging - great way for students to learn about animals on the farm.

Two really fun options for your students to create a Back To School Backpack
Option #1 - Use all of the templates provided and students will craft their own backpacks.
Option #2 - Begin with a paper bag and use the templates provided to create a paper bag backpack.
Both great options ... you decide which is a better option for your students.
There are many options for writing activities included:
- on the straps
- on the front cover
- a secret pocket which students complete inserts and drop into the pocket
- 5 interactive templates created so you can have students tell you more about themselves, what makes them happy, what they are good at, a little about their family, a goal for the year, find someone who ... likes/can/wants to etc.
- have used graphics for boys and for girls
What you need:
Paper (light cardstock would be extra special), coloring pencils, glue, paper bags (if that is the option you choose)
I have included step by step directions and visuals to assist you in assembling these backpacks.
Also, view the YouTube video on how to assemble these backpacks at: https://youtu.be/_CC35oQPdho
Look at the video and decide which backpack is better suited for your students - the paper bag backpack for the little ones, the regular backpack for students in the older grades.
You must save this file on your computer. Then open and print on 8 1/2 x 14 (legal size) paper. Otherwise, your product will not be set up properly.
Hope you love it! The completed backpack will stand about 8" tall. Use it all year long and have students complete items and drop them into their backpacks!
