Algebra 1 Scrapbook
This Algebra I Scrapbook will be graded as a 2 major test grades. You will use the
outline below to create your scrapbook.
Guidelines
1. All work must be done in pen, crayons, colored pencils, markers, or typed.
2. All work should be done on colored paper or typing paper.
3. Graphs may NOT be free hand. They MUST be done on graph paper.
4. Each heading should start a new page.
5. Write only on the front side of the pages.
6. Heading should appear at the top of each page, or be used as a divider.
7. All work must be correct! Incorrect will NOT receive credit.
8. The final book should be bound down the left side in 3 places. (staple, string, 3-ring
binder)
9. Be CREATIVE and be NEAT!!! Your grade depends on it!
