How to find Book Binding for the Expository Project



I would like all students to have a hardcover blank book for their expository writing project.  There are several options for purchasing these. I would like all students to have an empty book by December 9th. 

 

1.)    Teaching Things (a teacher supply store in Trussville) has these books for sale anywhere from $2.49 (smaller)-$3.99 (larger version).  One option is that you may go to the store and purchase one.  Teaching Things:  408 Walnut Drive, Trussville, AL 35173

2.)     The Hardcover white blank book from Teaching Things can also be found online: here.  This option is easy- but you may have to pay shipping.


 

3.)    Around town I have found these empty hard cover books at TJ Maxx, Marshalls, Tuesday Mornings, Target, and Walmart from time to time.  Stores often call these blank books “journals.” (Office Max, Office Depot, Dollar General, or even The Dollar Tree may have them as well.)  One of my students bought one at Marshall’s over the weekend and when I flipped it over – it had a mere “$1.99” listed on the price tag.

 

Happy Hunting!  If you are unable to purchase one of these books, don’t break your back trying.  I know the holiday season is a busy one.  Your child can fashion one out of a composition notebook or even blank paper, so NO WORRIES.  Blank paper glued inside and on top of an old hard back book may also suffice!
