It looks so awesome, with maps, pictures, Venn diagrams, popouts and things to build and color, recipes...on and on. Wish we had found these sooner. It will be an awesome way to learn! It'd also make a great co-op class, if I dare to volunteer again.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513728972273935488.post-37020372653598369192008-12-09T09:18:00.000-05:002008-12-09T09:18:00.000-05:00I just sent a link to all of your lap book posts t...I just sent a link to all of your lap book posts to one of our religious education families. The 8th grade girl is very shy and terrified of the usual final assignment - doing a short sermon. I don't want to terrorize anyone, so suddenly it came to me - have her do a lapbook instead! Thanks for mentioning this whole concept.

When I ring the old school bell the kids come running to start. =) (I do really use a bell for school and also for meals, they can hear it when they are running in the yard).<BR/><BR/>As for storing these things...that is a great question. For all of our art, I use big art pocket portfolios. I drop them in there and then at times we weed through and give some away as a gift to our elderly neighbors.<BR/><BR/>As for the pocket books or lapbooks, I like to use a milk crate to hold this kind of bulky item. Hope that helps.crispyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14614782132011418603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513728972273935488.post-56684973235150608792008-12-06T08:44:00.000-05:002008-12-06T08:44:00.000-05:00You can get some of these at the teacher supply st...You can get some of these at the teacher supply store next to Panera Bread in O town.

They've enjoyed learning history (Story of the World) so much more than I'd expected, but we're still "stuck" way back in time (learned about the Vikings this week). I think this would be a great way to teach them some American history until our curriculum catches up to that era. I'll check out that Evan Moor website. We just learned about the Civil War after going to Cracker Days and watching a local re-enactment. I'll see if they have a pocket-book about that!<BR/>Thanks for the tip!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1513728972273935488.post-46265365501293776282008-12-05T21:28:00.000-05:002008-12-05T21:28:00.000-05:00We did these a lot two years ago.
