Olympic Lapbook Learning

 We began our 

Olympic Lapbook study today,

and I wanted to post how we are doing it

in case anyone else out there needs some ideas

for some Olympic learning.

(Opening ceremonies are THIS Friday, people!

Woot! Woot!)

***********************************

I created our lapbook using

five file folders...

 ...three on the inside,

and two one the outside to create a pocket.

I am combining two different Olympic lapbooks,

which is why I used so many folders.

The lapbooks are

A Journey Through Learning Lapbooks'

The Summer Olympics 2012 Lapbook w/ Study Guide

and

Unit Studies by Amanda Bennett's

FREE Olympics 2012 Lapbook.

**************************************** 

 This is our cover,

soon to be filled with the kiddos' self-portraits.

 Folder One:

Greece and the Ancient Olympics

 Folder Two:

Modern Olympic Information,

including the 2012 Olympics in London, England

 Folder Three:

More Info on the

Modern Olympics 

(The piece of blank red paper will be covered

with Olympic medals the kiddos will design later.)

 Flaps from Other Folders:

This is where the kiddos will keep track

of who won gold medals in different Olympic events.

 Back Outer Pocket:

Timeline and Trivia from 

the Modern Olympics

is on the outside of the pocket

 

In the inside of the pocket,

(which you can learn to make HERE)

I have placed the study guide and the following

worksheets/activities we will hopefully be completing

during the unit:

Dot Art American Flag

Opening Ceremony Bingo

The Snack Mix of Champions 

********************************************

Have fun with all YOUR Olympic learning!

be
