DIFFERENTIATION Use the template to create a model Foldable activities can be scaffolded:
Foldables can be an independent assignment with a rubric
Students can fill in their own template via word processor or handwriting
Students can create their own graphics via pictures, clip art or drawing
Pre-created foldables can be provided for students to assemble
Assembled foldables can be provided for students to manipulate
RESEARCH Foldables™ are a promising alternative to the
traditional method of Lecture/Worksheet. Using Foldables™ significantly improved students'
attitudes toward the activity Teachers indicated that students were applying the
Foldables™ across the curriculum “The students were excited and motivated” All comments received from both teachers and
students regarding the use of Foldables™ were highly positive

STRATEGIES
Use for: Analyzing similarities and differences Summarizing and taking notes Organizing information
into through beyond
Background knowledge/vocabulary Sequencing
STORAGETurn one-gallon freezer bags into student portfolios
and storage containers Cut the bottom corners off each bag so they won’t hold air and
will stack and store easily. Write student names across the top of the plastic portfolios with
a permanent marker and cover the writing with two-inch clear tape to keep it from wearing off.
Place a piece of cardboard inside each portfolio to give it strength and to act as a divider.
Store Foldables in a giant laundry soap box. Students can carry their portfolios in a three-ring binder if you
place a strip of two-inch clear tape along one side and punch three holes through the taped edge.
Fasten Foldables with Velcro so that they can be flattened and stored easily.
