Botany Lapbook

Jessica worked really hard this morning on her Botany lapbook, great to see her been creative, she loves doing this kind of schoolwork as she can be artistic and creative as well as learning, it is not boring like other schoolwork she says. Above is her front cover.
In the middle she has labeled the parts of the plant. She used this site for some of her work http://www.mbgnet.net/bioplants/main.html

Then the parts of the flower.Flower Anatomy Printout - EnchantedLearning.com
Inside her booklet on the parts of the flower. I thought she had done a great job.
Other sites used today were;
BBC - Schools Science Clips - Life cycles What next

HUGE lapbook for History Fair

Jessica earlier this year entered the History Fair, she only decided the week before that she was going to do it, so it was a mad panic for her, lots of late nights and early mornings but finally she pulled it off, mum didn't help her at all except staying up with her and keeping her company and telling her she was wonderful lol.
She was very nervous on the day but I was so proud of her. She even dressed the part since she did the history of clothing, it all paid of in the end as she got second place.
I know it happened earlier this year the History Fair but I wanted to post it here as we were talking about it the other day and that it was just like a large lapbook. A good idea for those bigger projects.
