Well, it is another cloudless day here... cold, but cloudless. We have been trying to find a day for the Outdoor Hour Challenge #39 Weather Challenge #1, but it has not seemed to work out yet. We have had lots of cloudless days, and yesterday, when it was very cloud, we had no time to do it. A few days ago, though, I decided we would try a lapbook, so I got this Weather Lapbook to go along with this nature study challenge, so I decided to try it out with the girls this morning.
They really liked putting it together. Isabella was especially interested in getting her book put together. And she has been carrying it around and protecting it since she finished putting it together. She did need a good amount of help to put it together, and will need more help as we complete the activities in it. Madeline was able to do more of it by herself, and I suspect would be able to almost complete the assembly by herself if we did another one. She was also really excited about the fact that she gets to track the weather. They were also really interested in all of the different types activities in the project!
I think we will probably be looking to do another lapbook, if I find one that compliments our lessons. It was a nice activity for the girls to do... something different than what we usually do, and they have a finished product that they can be proud of.
Here is Isabella working on her cover. Yes, she is still in her PJs... I love homeschooling!
Here is Isabella with her lapbook almost completely out together.
Madeline liked the cutting and gluing involved in creating her lapbook.
