Botany Lapbook Progress

I am participating in another week of Blogging Through the Alphabet this week and the focus letter is B. We've been studying Botany using Apologia resources and the A Journey Through Learning's Apologia Exploring Creation with Botany Lapbook. I wanted to update you today with our progress.  As you know I reviewed the Exploring Creation with Botany Lapbook and we've continue to use it throughout the year at a slower pace.

We are currently working through Lesson 4 Pollination in the textbook and digging deeper into the topics and concepts using experiments, activities, field trips, literature, video, lapbooking, and note-booking. We are having a blast!

My daughter still enjoys the study and is learning soooo much! Her research, writing, and note-booking skills are improving. She's been able to focus on and summarize the most important and relevant information. The lapbook definitely adds a hands-on component to her learning.

Look at all the mini-books she's created below and these mini-books are only for Lesson 4. This is our second folder which covers Lesson 4-6. It's gonna be a HUGE lapbook to share with others when we complete it at the end of the year. Last week my daughter learned about Self-Pollination and The Pollinated Flower. She is showing you one of the mini-books in her hand below.     

I will link this post at Blogging Through the Alphabet hosted at Hopkins Homeschool, DoodleMom's Homeschooling Life, and Biblical Womanhood. Visit the party to link-up your Letter B post.

  1. Keep it up, young lady. It is looking good. It is great to see that it is helping her writing and note-taking, as well. Definitely reason to keep on. Glad she is enjoying it.
