Old School Layouts

My Yearbook I class is enormous this year, so I had to resort to an old school method of teaching layout.  With limited computer space, I ordered layout sheets from the yearbook company and regressed to teaching basic layout using those.  The students didn't know the difference and have had a great time pasting up layouts.  This is a wonderful tactile assignment that burns several days of instructional time; however, it allows the students a new experience.  You can also introduce the math concepts of measurement with this old fashioned assignment.
