Multi-Disciplinary Art Track
This year, a pre-made accordion book was included with the materials and
resources mailed to participants who registered for the SAIL virtual summer workshop.
The first video session and lesson for SAIL 2020 Multi-Disciplinary Arts Track includes
instructions about creating a cover for this book using gel plate printing of leaves.
We asked participants to include images created from the remaining sessions
and lessons in this accordion book, as illustrated in the above picture.
There are many resources to be found online about making accordion books. We’ve included the following, which provide excellent instructions for creating accordion books in your classrooms:
