Making a Zine

A zine (pronounced zeen) is a self-published booklet, often created by writing, drawing or gluing images together onto paper for photocopying. The publication is usually folded. 

​

Create an 8-page zine booklet following the instructions below.

 

Either download the PDF zine, or work from a blank sheet of paper.

 

Keep the zine with you and write your reflections on it.

 

The writing prompts on the zine include:

​

How do you prepare for your journey to school? 

​

What do you see and do before school?

​

How do you get to school? 

​

What or who do you see on your journey to school? 

​

Observe and record landmarks, people, colors, and quality of light/shadow—and anything else!

​

How do you feel on your journey? 

​

What sounds do you hear? Are they loud or soft? Repeating?

​

Think about all of your senses and draw your journey to school starting with a line. 

​

How long is your journey? Are there stops along the way? What do you see, hear, smell, feel?
