A resource book for any curriculum, and a treasure trove for designing your own unit studies! Directions and ideas for using "foldables" are in COLOR in the first part of the book. The rest is clearly organized resource material for physical science, astronomy, earth science, and biology. Topics are broken down into concise lists of activity suggestions along with the skill the activity teaches. Ex: Under the Caves page in earth science, "compare and contrast: precipitation and dissolution; inside and outside of a cave, including temperature, life, or light; dry and wet cave systems; past and present use of caves by humans". Ideas for foldables to use with these concepts are given. A tangible, fun, reviewable way to record information! Uses an immersion style of learning, is inquiry based, allows creative juices to flow, and puts students in charge of their own learning. (Assembly of Lap Books is not shown.
