Adventures in lapbooking

Well I've looked at lapbooking a bit on and off over time, but never been game to try it. Well today I browsed through some sites and felt like I understood it, and since I'm itching to get some (simple) schoolwork underway, I decided to just start!Thankfully, I came across this website, which offers many free templates. So I don't have to work out how to make my own minibooks to start with! For Jasmine's private reading schedule for school this year, she is supposed to read one story a day from a child's bible story book. It is painfully easy for her, so I figured we'd lapbook the stories so that it becomes a more age-appropriate activity. I want to theme the first lapbook on 'Genesis', funnily enough, but that is fourteen stories, so I doubt if 14 minibooks will fit on the one lapbook. Having never done one and all :) But I thought we could just do it, and pick our favourite minibooks to display, or I could look ahead and see if some stories would go well together. Today's story is the story of creation, and we're doing a book that has six flaps and a cover. I figured we'd do one day on each of the flaps, with the seventh day underneath. I want to give Jasmine as much leeway to be creative and independent as possible, but since we're both still learning lapbooking, and she's only six, I'm going to be pretty involved too. I'm also hoping to finish the lapbook before we travel to see family next week, so we have something to show them. I'm not interested in it looking professional or anything - I just like the fact that it's way different to what they'd see from their private and public school grandkids/nieces and nephews etc. Should be an interesting adventure.
