WE DID IT! Kelsey has completed her first lapbook. We both had a lot of fun, and we both really enjoyed the time together, just one on one. I could tell today as we finished the last 3 or 4 mini books that she was getting tired of the subject and was ready to move on, so I didnt push her to fully color anything, or cut the rest out by herself. I did *most* of the writing naturally, but she did a few of them in her own way, and did do some tracing work. She has learned quite a bit and really surprised me at how much she has retained...this was confirmed the second day we were learning about snails when at dinner she proceeded to ask her brother, Tyler who is 2, "Tyty, did you know that a snails butt is in the FRONT?!?!?, Isnt that WEIRD??!!" LOLOLOL....these are the best days yet!
I got the lapbook from http://www.homeschoolshare.com/ under the resources tab. This site is a wealth of resources and the ladies on the forum board have been just AWESOME! I have some new file folder games in the works for the kids thanks to the awesome links found on this board, so look for more pictures and links!
