How should I go about creating this scrapbook for my English project?
I’m going to be making a scrapbook for the book 1984. I chose seven items to include and that are going to use up 4 pages.
The thing is, as of now I’m going to be stapling paper together and calling it a scrapbook. Does anybody have any creative ideas? I can’t really go out and buy an actual scrapbook only because I don’t need that many pages.

Get a 1 inch 3 ring binder, construction paper, and a hole punch.
This way, it looks neat and orderly – and you can decorate the cover.

Take card stock to make a cover page and a back cover.
Decorate the front(including things from the book) and on the back cover at the bottom create a publishing name and symbol.
Now punch holes in the pages and the cover and back and thread yarn, string, etc. through the holes and tie.
You can add a border of heavier cardstock to your edge to finish it off. Fold a piece of cardstock measured to be as long as your scrapbook’s spine to form a band/binding. Slip it over the edges, then punch through all layers to thread it with yarn, twine, string etc or if your stapler is heavy enough, you can staple it. You can also use brads in the punched holes.
Here’s some more information about how to make a scrapbook if it will help you with some ideas:

HTH!
Make a mini paper bag book. It’s easy, more substantial feeling than just copy paper, and as long as you cover each page entirely in scrapbook or construction paper before tying the spine together, nobody will see the paper bags! :)
GOOD LUCK!

You can make a pamphlet book or a chap book.
Inexpensive and a quick project, not a big deal to put together.
Very easy to do and can be constructed in less than 5 minutes, 10 minutes at the most.
For your project of four pages –you would only need two sheets of computer paper and a piece of card stock, string/yarn/embroidery floss/ribbon, and a hole punch.
This would give you 8 pages but the first and last pages are your title page and your end page with the center 4 your content pages.
I am very sure you would be happy with the results!
