Then we stapled it all together and he got to make a book. He still doesn’t write really well, which is fine, so sometimes it took two pages to write the law. he then had to copy what each law says under the pasted on box. Second, he cut out the boxes that titled each law (the ones that say Newton’s First Law, etc) and glued them to a page. But instead of having it be a cut and paste activity, I added things in.įirst, we cut out the picture of Newton and put it on a cover page and Nicholas had to write “Newton’s Laws” on the front page. We also didn’t make a real window book, I simply stapled the sides of the paper together. I simply printed out the file and then cut everything out. In this case, we used this small window book of Newton’s Laws from Jimmie’s Collage. So when I use someone else’s lapbook, I tend to add things into them. But what I don’t like is that so many lapbooks are cut and paste – they don’t have room for the kids to write or draw. I’ve liked the whole “lapbooking” thing for a while. It doesn’t mean that we don’t do anything else, but we do a lot of things that he likes. I’m big into child-directed learning (as you probably know), and like to follow his lead. Nicholas just wants to keep learning more and more, so we do more and more. We’ve been focusing a lot on Physics these past few months.
