DRAWBRIDGE:
MAKE A FLIPBOOK

    1. Print the WORKSHEET.
    2. You'll cut along the lines, but first locate the left margin of each picture (where the numbers are). Don't cut that off. It's where your thumb and forefinger will hold onto the book.
    3. Arrange the pictures in order from 1 to 12. Make sure the right edges line up. Fasten together with two staples in the left margin.
    4. Flip the pages quickly. The drawbridge will open for the boat to go through, then close again.
