Our brand new lapbook add-on for Middle Ages is an optional extension for people who love hands-on learning! The digital bundle comes with the digital, PDF Instruction Guide with placement, cutting, and folding instructions as well as the cut outs for both level 1 and 2. Please note you will need to purchase a folder and fasteners for each student who is making a lapbook as well as glue and scissors. The cut out pack is designed to be printed double sided in full color. If you prefer, you can purchase the printed bundle from us which comes with everything you need and has the digital included in case you make a mistake here.
The lapbook is designed to be done instead of your notebooking pages as a hands-on way to show what you know and even to present it at the end of the unit. It requires a lot of cutting and pasting and is not for everyone! We recommend pre-cutting the cut outs before the lesson and even working on one lapbook together as a family.
There are two levels to choose from: level 1 includes all the information and is as simple as cutting, pasting, and folding. Level 2 is for older students and has blank spaces for them to take notes, write what they learn, build their own timeline, and more. Level 1 is applicable for all ages, level 2 is recommended for middle or high school students that want more of a challenge. The digital bundle comes with both levels for you to choose from.
