Sep. 2, 2008 - Legend of Lightning Larry
Calling all you cowboys and cowgirls! Who says school can't be fun?! :)
We started our week off at co-op with a Legend of Lightning Larry play and some lemonade tasting!
Here is our finished lapbook:
This is a double lapbook (two file folders glued together). This is the first folder.
Inside the Books I Read About Cowboys. This was a great activity for Elijah. He got to underline all the book titles, find the copyright dates, and add a word to describe each of the books we read.
Inside Cowboy Clothes
Parts of a play (we learned at co-op)
Inside the onomatopoeia book (ZING!)
Vocabulary hats
Inside the second folder
Elijah had a fun time putting the outlaw names in alphabetical order! :)
We used the dictionary to help us think up some new alliterated names for the outlaws (since they had a change of heart)
After we read the D'Aulaire book, Elijah dictated his narration to me. I typed it for him.
Memory Verse boot :-)
We ended our week with a co-op field trip to the RODEO!

Wow, Ami, what a fantastic co-op you have. I think I want to sign up! We are still searching through all the HSS studies but it is so hard to narrow it down! What a blessing HSS is for my family.
