Kindergarten Monthly School Book

I showed a sneak-peek of Ryan's school book in December, but with school starting soon, I wanted to share the final product.

I got this idea and many of the page templates from Becky Higgins. This was very easy to keep up with on a monthly basis and I customized the page layout theme to whatever picture I took of Ryan at school (or sometimes at home) that month.

In addition to the pages below, I added a bunch of page protectors to hold significant writing assignments, certain pictures he drew, report cards and a handful of "tests." I passed many, many papers on to the grandmas and kept only the best of the best memories. Having a 1-inch binder will limit the paperwork I keep year to year.
