Vocabulary (top) flaps and mini-books made while studying 3 types of rocks.

Then, you turn the right hand page to reveal another two-page spread:

Left hand side flap is down (closed) with tactile worksheet my daughter did showing.

Flap opened up to show another worksheet she put together (top) as well as a "pie" she wrote up from the notes she took while studying gemstones.(Need to make a GEMSTONES label for this still... oops!)

Right hand page... yep, on volcanoes. Shows types of volcanoes "flaps" on the left, foldable on the right.

Volcano types flaps opened up one level.

Volcano types flaps opened to the second level, as well as the foldable diagram of inside a volcano.

Turn the lapbook page again and we come to this next two-page spread:

Left hand page with the booklet opened up to reveal the 4-stage drawing of how a geyser works.

Turn that illustration sheet page and the written narration is below:

Right hand page:

Each illustration on the movement of a glacier down a mountain can be lifted.

As seen here:

With short informational sentences on the movement.

And, though we don't have enough in the lapbook on CRYSTALS to show here (yet), my daughter and husband did do the science project together, creating a gorgeous crystal garden.

This was taken about a week after the garden was formed, thus the crystals started to weigh down and fall off. But, it still holds a place on our countertop!

And, we may return soon to earth studies (and add more to the lapbook) or it may be a few years before we're back to it (I try to follow the WTM rotation of science loosely)... we'll have to wait and see!
