Nov. 12, 2007 - Our First Lapbook
We just finished our first lapbook. We're studying North America in our My Father's World curriculum. Instead of doing worksheets, we researched different topics and turned them into a lapbook made with file folders.
The Cover
On the inside we had: the highest & lowest points of North America, Flags, Population, Endangered Animals & the official language of each country.
The back cover was a booklet of people in North America that need our prayers.

Great lapbooking!
As you do more of it you (or your children) will come up with some pretty cool ideas. Ones that you do not need to print off the computer or buy in a kit. That gets cool!
So, it looks like you are doing Adventures? We loved that year. They book basket was key- for us at least.
I hope your time of giving thanks is truly blessed and special.

Hi, I forgot to ask this before. Your lap books looks long, did you use an ordinary file folder buy some kind of jumbo file folder? Maybe it is just he angle of the picture?
