It occurred to me the other day while driving Carly to preschool that the kids would probably love to learn the correct names of the amazing tropical birds we see every day around the city and occasionally on field trips. We only recently started experimenting with lapbooks and I was excited to make this into a weekend project for the kids. Once finished, these will be kept in the car for reference on any drives we take. Here are the finished products.
I just printed out a bunch of pictures of local birds I wanted to include and glued them to construction paper, and then to a plain folder that we folded toward the center. Most of the pictures open up so the children can see other variations of the same bird or more pictures of the same kind of bird. So far, these lapbooks have been a huge hit!
