01 / UNDERSTAND

Here is what is happening.

A bookmark helps you find where you stopped reading. A good design should fit the book and avoid damaging the page. Decoration can make it personal, but the job comes first. You can fold paper rather than needing a special craft kit.

Pause. Make the idea your own.

Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?

You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.
02 / MAKE IT YOUR OWN

Your little investigation

What you need

Paper and a pencil, or a partner to talk with. Drawing and speaking are welcome.

  1. Fold a small paper strip and place it gently between pages.

  2. Add a picture showing the kind of stories you enjoy.

  3. Test whether you can find the page again without bending it.

03 / CHECK YOUR UNDERSTANDING
