Teacher's Tools and Materials
Level One
Start With Recycling
Organize a clean-up system. Your student should organize the boxboard that they brought into your classroom on a daily bases.

Choose the good boxes. Send the unusable material to recycling. I told my students in charge of organizing the boxboard  basket to clean or cull the basket daily. An important task.
Then the student transported the  boxboard from their house to the  classroom when the bag was full.
Organize a large container dedicated   to recycling paper, cardboard, boxboard and clean art paper.
A few more essential items that you will need to make the Bookmark are shown in the above photo.

You will have to determine how you will organize these items. Once you have purchased them you do not want to lose them.Also, you will want to set up your classroom so that your students know where to find the items when they need to use them.

They also have to know  where to return the items when they have completed their task.

                The Cutting Jig
If you are not a wood-worker, send a note home inquiring if there is a parent who can make six cutting jigs. They are easy and inexpensive to make. Make sure the cutting jigs have felt bottoms.
