Students , today we will be creating an American Revolution Lapbook. I have shown you an example of the completed product. We are going to do this together step-by-step. I will show you each step on the projector. If you have any questions, please ask. Also, work with your partner or table to check that you are completing the book as directed.
Each student will get a folder, packet, glue stick, and scissors.
We will now complete the cover of the book. Each of you will receive a paper. Please cut the first image out like this. ( Teacher proceeds to show an example) Now you may cut your paper. When your paper is cut, you may glue it to the front of the book to match the illustration on the overhead.
The students will continue this process in class until each section of the lap book is complete. |
