Publisher's Synopsis
It starts small. Your student picks up an inexpensive souvenir on a family vacation as a way to document and remember the event. Soon, he begins to accumulate similar items on other excursions-and before long-he has a collection. Marbles, thimbles, postcards, matchbooks, magnets, stickers, figurines, coins, stamps, dolls, and more-a collection can be anything brought together into a group. There is no limit to what your students can collect. Look around your classroom, perhaps even you have a collection and aren't aware of it. The Ultimate Guide to Collecting is a practical, hands-on guide for young people interested in starting a new collection or expanding their current collection. The book includes tips on how to start, grow, organize, maintain, and display a collection. The Ultimate Guide to Collecting offers how-to advice for anyone interested in making collecting an exciting learning experience.
