Maya, Inca and Aztec thingy
Posted in Our Lapbooks
We did a mini study of the Maya, Inca and Aztec last week. Today, we finished this...I just don't know exactly what to call it. There are a few mini books, but then I added pages with page protectors to put the kids reports in and it's not a file folder refolded, its a a regular folder with the three prongs. Soooooooo, it's not a lap book, it's not a notebook, I guess it's lap/note book thingy...or I'll just call it a folder book. (Ummm, can I have that patented?) Any ways, here they are below. This was basically a breif overview of the subject covered and in 5 days time. For the folder books, with my younger two, I used History Pockets Ancient History and for my older ones, I used Inca, Aztec, Maya reproducable book by edupress.
Books we read and used were Eyewitness Books, Aztec, Inca, and Maya. Aztec and Maya arts and crafts and Me Oh Maya with the Time Warp Trio. To help my 7th grader, she read, "Streams of Civilizations" and my 6th grader read, "The Story of the World". These were really good to emphasize and supplement what we were learning about. I also made up a worksheet for the kids to fill in about each ones location, social structure and religion. Our curriculum suggested them to write a report and the easiest way for all of us to this was for me to make up a worksheet (it as the Lord's idea, not mine : ))
This week we will be learning about the Bible- not about the info in the Bible, but about the Bible itself. Who wrote it, why is it called a "book of books", how many books are in the Bible, ect. We will be making it into a lapbook, as well. Of course I will post pics!
