Friends~I was just welcomed into the world of LapBooks by my teamie Mrs. Thompson! That women is a foldable genius! I am so excited to show you what she helped me create today! We took my Polar Bear Unit and turned it into a LapBook. Really, we shrunk pages, folded them, cut them and glued them into this beautiful assessment tool! I am so excited to see my students put this baby together using all that they have learned about Polar Bears!

I am so excited! My kiddos will be filling in a CAN HAVE ARE Chart and coloring in a map showing where the Polar Bears Live. They will create a Venn Diagram on the back and also write child friendly definitions for vocabulary words. They will create a flip book of what Polar Bears eat and make a diagram of their skin and blubber. All the while, I will be doing Then Blubber Glove Experiment with small groups. They will then record their learning from the experiment in the center of their LabBook.
Holy Moly! I am HOOKED! I can't wait to get these grooving with my kiddos on Saturday. Yes, I said Saturday! We have a make up day due to our NO Snow Day last Friday. At lease I know that there will be lots of good learning going on in room 331!
I'm off to make a grading rubric for this LapBook!

Isn't it amazing how excited we can get when we try something new? I put our same boring social studies information together in a lapbook and nearly squealed with excitement at how it all fit together beautifully!
ReplyDeleteI can fill your excitement through the screen! One of my favorite experiments is the Blubber Glove! I marvel at the results! Thanks for sharing...snow much icy fun!
ReplyDeleteWhat great timing! We just started our Polar Animal unit this week. Thanks so much, I can't wait to give this a try. I can't believe you are going to school on Saturday. What a wonderful day you have planned for your children. Enjoy.

This was pretty cute, could have used more instructions from the inside, but I was able to figure most of it out from the picture. This was my first lapbook project. I think it was a great one to start with! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteI would have come to school on a Saturday just for all of the fun! Thanks for the great freebie!
