Volcanoes




Mt. Rainier is a volcano that we've actually seen "in person," so we added these postcards that we brought home from our Washington vacation.

This lapbook, that the kids finished up today, is made with two file folders, three mini-books, magazine fold-outs, a little journaling book, postcards, etc. The kids and I had fun with it!! I'm hoping that, by integrating all learning styles, the information will really stick. Plus they can revisit it at any time!

Hi, I found your blog via Jimmie (China) and looked around. Great posts on art & color. I found this one on volcanoes and I like to recommend Nim's Island (book or DVD, or both): it is about a home schooled girl living on an island with a volcano.
Here is our art project on it:
