We had the opportunity to make the cover for our sketchbook. We were able to paint or add glitter to a piece of paper that would eventually cover our sketchbooks. After the pint dried we cut cardboard to fit the back of the paper and then glued the paper to it. After that was dry we added the paper in between the front and back covers and used dental floss to hold it together. This made a personalized sketchbook for each student.
Extension: Many classrooms have journals that students do creative writing in. This would be a fun art project to do for the covers of the student's journals. You need a few materials and lined paper instead of printer paper, but students can make a creative journal instead of having a plain notebook for their creative writing assignments.
