Jordan and I read several books about maps. So, we brought out new map books and continued onward! Honestly, we just studied maps while rowing Henry the Castaway, but we weren’t able to cover everything. The boys rolled their dice and multiplied that by the number written in.Īfterwards, they used their dot paints to color-code the even and odd answers. I printed the blank page and added 7s, 8s, and 9s since we were working on strengthening those math facts. I created a Red Light, Green Light Math by Dice Multiplication pack. The boys used their dot paints and crayons to color their traffic lights.Īfterwards, we cut them out, stapled them, and added them to their FIAR notebooks. You can purchase your copy here at our TPT Store. I created this printable for the kids when we rowed The Red Carpet during our BFIAR days (that “post from the past” will hopefully make it here one day). I decided to print out our verse tracer and lapbook insert from our God’s Traffic Light. Since Jordan already memorized the Make Way for Duckling’s verse. Jordan remembered her from Strawberry Girl 60th Anniversary Edition (Trophy Newbery), a wonderful Sonlight Level C read-aloud. I thought it would be fun to pair this up with our map work unit.įirst we read Policeman Small by Lois Lenski. Who could forget the kindness of Michael, the policeman in the story who wen to great lengths to protect Mrs. We also read Celebrating Massachusetts: 50 States to Celebrate (Green Light Readers Level 3) which was very entertaining and informative.Īfterwards, Jordan worked on his Massachusetts insert (copied from our Target dollar bin book). I brought our Jordan’s State Farm book and he worked on the Massachusetts page. We read Massachusetts (Rookie Read-About Geography) from the Rookie Read-About Geography series. He used the Bible verse puzzle to practice the verse until he could recite it from memory. Jordan traced his Bible verse the first day then we cut it apart and he glued it into his lapbook the next day. I created a Make Way for Duckling Bible Verse Pack.

Jordan colored the story disk and added it to Boston, Massachusetts on our world map. Parker also took inspiration from the cover, but decided to go with a yellow duck instead of a mallard duck. Jordan took his inspiration from the cover of the book. I usually encourage them to create their artwork based on the illustrator of the book.

The boys create a cover page for each book we row.

The kids were so excited to see our next book, Make Way for Ducklings (Viking Kestrel Picture Books) presented at the breakfast table! READY TO ROW: Lapbook Covers: We started our row with a fun and sweet duckling pancake breakfast.
