This lapbook is based on the book Fizz, Bubble & Flash!: Element Explorations & Atom Adventures for Hands-On Science Fun! We were able to pick this up from our local library, but it’s one that I want to add to our bookshelf!
We picked out 3 elements from each group to put in the respective mini books. Munchkin wrote the name, symbol, atomic number, atomic mass, who discovered it, and when it was discovered. You could easily go really in depth with this lapbook, but we kept it simple.
Today, we’ve declared Experiment Day!!! We’re going to have fun doing a bunch of the experiments from the book.
We designed the cover in the PrintMaster Program.
We added a small periodic table to the lapbook as Munchkin thought it needed to have one. She wrote the names of the different groups on their sections of the table. She then highlighted the elements that she featured in her lapbook.
Wow! You guys are doing so many great lapbooks! Can’t wait to hear about your experiment day. 🙂
Reading all of your homeschool posts makes me wish I had little ones again, so I can do all the fun stuff you are doing! 🙂 Munchkin is in my favorite age group for homeschooling.
Keep up the good work mom! 🙂
