Disclosure: I received this complimentary product through the HOMESCHOOL REVIEW CREW.
If you know me, you know that I absolutely love resources from Home School in the Woods. They are always on point and so great to have in our homeschool.
We have been so blessed to receive their Activity-Pak: Make-A-State for review, which is part of their Hands-on History Activity Paks. As the name implies, this set provides us with the materials to study every state in the U.S. as well as Washington, D.C.! There are so many projects that incorporate research, creating writing, coloring, mapping, and so much more. This is a great resource to pair with U.S. history and is geared for grades 3-8.
It seemed appropriate to dive into the state we live in, Texas! The kids and I have been working through the projects and piecing together our lapbook and I just love the way it is coming along. I love that the kids are learning and exploring about our state.
I love that there are clear and concise directions for every state activity. It tells you what to print, what to research and how you will assemble it for your lap book. Of course you can customize it a bit - if you want to color it, print it on colored paper, include other research, etc.
Likewise, there are fabulous directions for assembling your complete lap book. It clearly tells you where to place each project or activity and has nice illustrations for how it will come together. I personally really appreciate all of these instructions as it takes any confusion or guesswork out of this resource!
