Almost finished Tower of London

We started putting the Tower of London lapbook together today. What a pain! He made a pop-up Tower of London but the glue would not stick. No matter what glue or rubber cement we used it wouldn't work. We ended up using velcro! So, we will be working on this tomorrow.
Have a great day. ~smile~

Volcano Lapbook To Be Posted

Tom has 3 more booklets to do and he is finished! Everything else is already glued in. He is really do nice work. He really dislikes to write but this he enjoys. I'm starting to make him do short little reports in his lapbooks. I do believe there was only one in this volcano lapbook. Oh, he also dislikes art, alot. So I'm trying to get him to use alot of color when he is gluing the booklets in. He did a black background with red, yellow, and orange behind the booklets. I'll try to post everything tonight or by the latest tomorrow. NOW POSTED

Below, Meant to say A strip of paper slipped under the timeline booklet so that the booklet will not come undone and fall all over the place.
