How to Make Portfolios

I love making portfolios af the end of the year. It’a a great way to bring closer to the school year. Plus its fun look back at the progress the student made.

Note*** I don't not live in a state that requires portfolios. So what I share may or may not help you.

I. The Materials:
- folders with cover pocket
- post it tabs
- sheet protectors
- pens
- cover sheets made in Canva

II. The Method
1. Simplify: Type out covers for each subject.
2. Organize: Have your student select two assignments from each subject they liked best.
3. Beautify: Allow your student to decorate the cover page.

I also like to type out a cover letter and briefly describe the school year. In addition to this, I evaluate each student and my relationship to them.

When I'm done I put them in a file box and throw away the notebooks. The portfolios keep me from storing everything.
