FREE notebooking pages!

Posted in Notebooking

I recently discovered a really cool  program called Google Analytics that allows me to track all kinds of facinating info on blog visitors like what country they are from, what pages they looked at, and how much time they wasted  spent  here. While it really serves no practical purpose, it is great fun. And since I now know that about a third of my blog traffic comes from search engines, and almost all of those visitors are looking for "free notebooking pages", I thought I would post about all my favorite places to get "free notebooking pages." See, there IS a reason for everything under the sun!

A New Name For Notebooking

Posted in Notebooking

     We've been "notebooking" almost as long as we've been homeschooling, yet it was only a couple of years ago that I realized it had a name. But I've got to be honest with you: I really don't like the name. While "notebooking" is technically a good description for what we do, it's only a good description if you already know what you are doing. You can't just walk up to someone and say "Yes, we use notebooking in our home education" without expecting a few questions. Which is why I've been trying to find something better. I haven't come up with anything stellar, but I think that the term "journaling" might be pretty good. After all, education happens during the daily adventures of life (some that happen naturally and some that are created by the "teacher") and a journal is a great place to write about adventures! 

      If something exciting happens, you naturally want to share it with someone else. And learning is a very exciting thing. Writing a short summary of things that have been read, stories that have been listened to, or field trips and activities that have been experienced is a great way to "review" learning and make sure those memories don't get lost. It's also makes it easier to share those memories with others. Maps and illustrations can also be drawn or copied and pasted into your journal. "Lapbooking" can be time and money intensive, but an occasional mini-book is a great addition to an educational journal and adds an interactive element to it. Photgraphs and small keepsakes from projects and field trips are also nice additions to a journal. Hands-on activities are a great way to make learning personal to your child and like other important events, they should be well documented. Just like any other journal, the contents of an educational journal will vary according to the personality of the writer- your creativity is the only limit.

     So, there you have it: Educational Journaling. You heard it here first! ;o)

And while we are on the subject of educational journals: I'm pleased to announce that my friend Betsy Stout has finally completed her website! She has some great notebooking pages for sale and a bunch of freebies too. Here's the link to her beautiful website: Notebooking Nook
