Each month the journal cover contains different clip art and fonts. I also made a girl and boy cover page for each month. For the page that the students write on, I will start with a blank page so the students draw a picture and label. Then, the students will write on a single line, and by the end of the year he/she will write on 3 lines.
What do you think? Is their anything I should change or add? Thank you for your time!

Thanks Elisabeth! Journal topics are my next step in the making this summer. This past year, unless I told them to write about a topic, they wrote 1-3 sentences on whatever they wished. I have to say some students were very creative and some students tried to start every page with I like... If I find something while I am blogging, I will let you know!
Thanks I love these. I have use year long journals and last year used small books. I loved the year long but what a mess getting everyone on the right page. Thanks again. I love your blog and all the great things you share.
So cute!! Thank you for sharing!!
Great journals! I love this idea! You also have a great website with very great resources. I was just thinking of making journals and your idea works.
Thank you Rock Star Teachers for your kind words. It is nice to know that taking the time to share your ideas is appreciated! If you have any questions about the journal, please let me know!
What about putting the month on the cover so the parent can keep track and the first page has a student self portrait with their signature,just a thought . These are adorable and I love the rubric. I have something similar but mine hook into OCR. I will send teachers here. thanks for being so generous....u rock!

Hi Amber,
I love this and do this in my classroom. I know alot of my kids are writing on more than three lines by the end of the year. Maybe add lines on the back of the three lined page so they have that option for those advanced writers. :)
Thank you for posting.
Love the checklist! thanks for sharing!
This is awesome!!! Thanks so much for sharing!!! I know how much time it takes to make stuff!!! Thank you!!!
Great journals! I do journals as well, and change it up by doing "photo friday". Each child has an envelope of photos of themselves when they were captured doing an activity or playing with a friend, ect. The photos are printed off on regular paper and addded to each childs folder. On Friday, instead of drawing a picture to write about, they choose and glue a photo from their envelope and write about what was happening in the photo. It's helps them to have the new topics to write about and looks so cute in the journals! :)
Thanks so much. I am definitely going work on this!
I cannot find the link for the writing journals. Would you email it to me?
I am not finding a way to download. Need your help please!
