Portfolio for the boy of primary classes

A dozen years ago, the concept of "portfolio" was associated only with model business and creative activity. Today, the parents of schoolchildren face the need to produce a portfolio. So far, the requirement to have a personal portfolio is not mandatory, but often this task comes from the teacher, putting many parents in a dead end. Sometimes, as a homework for a girl or an elementary school boy, they are asked to make even a first-grade portfolio. To help you in this matter, let's find out what a portfolio is for a primary school student and how to do such a thing for a boy.

Features of filling the portfolio for primary school for a boy

Under the portfolio for the student is meant a collection of data on the years of schooling (in this case - in the elementary grades). Usually it includes the provision of brief information about the student and more complete - about his successes, achievements and impressions during his studies.

As such, there are no rules or standards for filling the portfolio. It should only be clearly structured, following an approximate scheme. In particular, a title page with a photograph of the child, an autobiography written by him and a list of the main achievements must be available. All the rest is a field for joint creativity of parents and the schoolboy himself.

You can arrange a child's portfolio for a boy in four ways:

Portfolio made for the boy of primary classes, will be slightly different from the similar for the girl. First of all, you will need another, more "boyish" template (you can use the images of the characters from your son's favorite cartoons). In describing his favorite activities and achievements, you can focus on sports, also do not forget to talk about active games in which the boy likes to play with friends. Here you can specify his favorite adventure films or books, what he dreams to become, what he collects.

Structure of the children's portfolio

The structure described here is approximate - you can choose one or other portfolio pages at your discretion or add others. Over time, their number will increase in proportion to new information about the achievements of the student. Well, if most of the pages will be accompanied by thematic photos.

  1. The title page should include the child's surname, name and age. Here, name the institution and paste the student's photo. Let him choose which photo will decorate his portfolio.
  2. Personal data - as a rule, this is the story of a schoolboy about himself, about his life and plans.
  3. The learning process is where the child, with the help of the parents, will collect materials related to the educational process (workbooks and diaries, test results, drawings, lists of literary works he has read).
  4. Extracurricular activities include the description of the circles visited by the child (for example, ballroom dancing or the swimming section), as well as socially useful activities (participation in subbotniks, making wall newspapers, speaking on the "ruler").
  5. Achievements of the student - this includes letters, gratitude, prizes at olympiads or sports competitions.
  6. You can also place photos of the medals won by the child and prizes.
  7. Comments and wishes are the final part of the portfolio. Put here positive feedback from the teacher of primary classes, other favorite teachers, as well as parting words from parents and friends of your child.

The graduate's portfolio will be similar, but includes all the years of schooling. But the sample portfolio of preschoolers for the boy in the kindergarten will be markedly different from the school.

Portfolio is a great idea to motivate a child to learn well and achieve new high goals, increase his self-esteem.
