Halcyon Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 (edited) We've been enjoying lapbooks more than ever this year, and right now are working on a few. 1. A Leonardo Da Vinci lapbook, downloaded from who know's where LOL. Great fun. 2. The New World Explorers Lapbook from Homeschool in the Woods: this one is HUGE and I anticipate it will take us 2-3 months to complete, as we only work on it twice a week. 3. The Operation Grammar lapbook from In the Hands of a Child. A fun way to cement grammar information, using real books. 4. A new addition, the Astronomy Basics Lapbook from Knowledge Box Central-got this one for only 5.99 after receiving a $10 coupon for subscribing to their newsletter. I'd love to hear what others are working on, what's working for your family, and what's been a flop. I'm always looking to add new lapbooks to our stash :) We do make our own, but if I can find a pre-made one for cheap, they're easy to adapt.

Closeacademy Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Right now we are taking a break from school but we have these lined up for January: 5th grade--HOAC Great Ice Age Lapbook 3rd grade--we are going to do something with owls but I have to research it. She requested doing a lapbook on them after we started reading Harry Potter. She loves the owls.:001_smile: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moniksca Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 (edited) We are doing a black plague lapbook from homeschoolshare, we're using the freebie notebooking pages from HOAC for any great painter for Leonardo da Vinci, and we're doing a solar system lapbook from JFeliciano together a Magic school bus one.

Mommee & Baba Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 We'll begin on a Christmas lapbook Monday. :) Really excited about it too! Lots of activities! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moniksca Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Thanks for linking that Freebie! Not a problem, we'll also start a Polar express lapbook once I pick up the book from the library. I think I downloaded it from Currclick during the Thanksgiving giveaway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irishmommy Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 We are working on the Christmas unit by Amanda Bennett and are really enjoying putting together a lapbook as a family. We did this for Thanksgiving and LOVED it. I do all the cutting, my son does all of the writing, my dd does all the coloring, and my 2 yo does all the eating of the glue, uh, I mean "helping".

Kirch Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 We're "working" on an apple lapbook based on How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World. We've been "working" on it for a while now, and I think it's pretty much on hold until after the holidays now. A pirate lapbook is on deck for ds 6 when we finish this one, and ds 4 will probably do one on an animal of his choice. I put most of ours together myself, although I do pull in as many ready-made (free) materials as I can find! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish there were more quality lapbooks like this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kfeusse Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 has anyone done the SOTW lapbooks as linked on Run of the Mill's blog?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KristineinKS Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 We're slowly working on Time Travelers: Colonial Life from Homeschool in the Woods & I just noticed she has a "History of Holidays" study that I may download as well. I've got pictures on my blog of three of the lapbook/notebook projects we did this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreistetter Posted December 12, 2010 Share Posted December 12, 2010 We recently finished The Civil War by Homeschool in the Woods. We also did a lapbook with our physics K-2 co-op class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
