Culture Scrapbook Page Project
Mrs. Edson
Now that we have learned so much about culture in class, it is time for
you to find out more about your culture. You must research your culture
based on the characteristics discussed in class. You must narrow down your
research to 4 of the 10 we learned in class.
When your research is complete, your project is to create a 5-page
scrapbook. Your scrapbook will be graded on the directions below and how
well you show your true understanding of what makes up culture. Have fun
celebrating your culture!! The following is the list of criteria for your page:
1. The project must be completed on paper no larger than copy paper or a
page of scrapbook paper.
2. Label and decorate your scrapbook title page with your first name, last
name, and the name of your culture. (ex. Indian, Polish, Russian, etc.)
3. Your book must be divided into 5 different pages, a title page, then one
page for each of the four characteristics (ex. religion, food, clothing, etc.)
a. Label each page with the characteristic it represents.
b. Fill each page with pictures, items, and anything else, which best
represent that characteristic of your culture. A minimum of 4
examples for each characteristic is required.
c. Each page must also have explanations of your pictures and
items and how they relate to your culture. You may write captions for
your pictures to explain what they are representing. These
explanations must be written in your own words.
4. Grammar and spelling are always important! Remember to revise and
edit carefully.
5. Your scrapbook must be creative and colorful. Although scrapbooks are
creative collages, your final product must look neat, thoughtfully planned,
and organized.
Please read and discuss with your child the directions for the culture
scrapbook assignment, due on Monday 29, 2008. Research will begin in
school, however, more that to be done at home. Please assist your child in
planning effectively.
