Making Passports
The wallet/passport should be big enough that they can add key scriptures and lesson reminders to a "page" for each lesson.
Supplies:
- faux-leather (make sure faux-leather is pliable so that it folds). Two pieces approximately 4x6 per student.
- parchment-style paper, cut to the exact size of the faux leather
- two pieces of old wood
- a hole punch (hammer and nail)
- brass brads
- pictures of students (or paper to create a self-portrait)
- stickers or stamps
- small Paul map, copy for each student
- silver and gold sharpies
- string
Directions:
- Students use scissors to cut faux-leather into a large wallet size "passport" cover. Be sure your faux leather material is pliable so that it folds. Two pieces approximately 4x6 works.
- Use parchment-style paper, cutting it to the exact size of the faux leather.
- Lay the two pieces on a piece of old wood, with the parchment paper sandwiched in between. Use a hole punch (hammer and nail) to punch 2 holes through the left margin of the paper and leather and fasten with brass brads.
- Add a picture of the student (or have them create a self portrait).
- Add stickers and stamps at each stop. Use a date-stamp to "validate" their passport.
- Make copies of a small Paul map and paste it into the back of the passport.
- Illustrate Paul's Passport cover with a silver or gold colored sharpie.
- Add other doodads and passport effects as you wish.
- Add a string to hang the passport around their neck during class.
