A fellow teacher in the county was doing these with her students, so I decided to order some calendar blanks from
http://www.barebooks.com/ and have the kids create one for themselves as well. Each month had a different theme and the students had to create their calendar with illustriations and information to be used in their kitchen. We started with June, since we were working on them into May and they will be able to use them into May of 2011. Here are some pictures from a student calendar.
This calendar was very well done, and was a superior example of what the kids are doing in class! I hope that those who have had calendars brought home are enjoying them!
