INSTRUCTIONS FOR FLIPBOOK:

Note: It matters the pages you copy 2 sided together or it will NOT work out.
 
Step 1: Grab a copy of “Book of Quadrilaterals Page” and “Vocabulary” pages.
 
   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 2: Copy them with one of them flipped 1- 2 sided (I copy on white paper so my
students can highlight)
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 3: Grab the “Quadrilateral Family Tree” and “Trapezoids” pages.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
Step 4: Copy them with one of them flipped 1- 2 sided
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 5: Grab the “Parallelograms” and “Squares” pages.

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 6: Copy them with one of them flipped 1- 2 sided
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
Step 7: Grab “Rectangles” and “Rhombi” pages.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 8: Copy them with one of them flipped 1- 2 sided

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 9: Stagger them like this (I have my students do it in a warm-up) in order (From
Bottom: Vocabulary ! Trapezoids ! Squares ! Rhombi) ORDER MATTERS!

 
 
 
 
 
Step 10: Grab the papers like pic below and fold it over
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Step 11: Your finished product will look like pic below and staple it at top (try to staple
VERY CLOSE to top so you have as much writing room as possible – I emphasize this
with my kids in the directions).
