Pumpkins ~ Lapbook

Our first Little Laplinks post! I visit Little Blots of Faith often and this has inspired me to get busy sharing some of our stuff. I used to teach Kindergarten and I LOVED swapping ideas with other teachers. I have been getting great ideas online for over a year now since we began homeschooling, now it's my turn to give back! I have back dated all of our past Lapbooks made so far and plan to keep on adding, so check back! I hope this site can be helpful for someone looking for ideas for Lapbooks! My son is in Kindergarten, a little over half way through his K curriculum, although the activities I use can easily be altered for PreK-1st grade.

Here is our Pumpkin Lapbook...

Left Flap...
Top Left: Pumpkin Patterns
Middle Left: Shine For Jesus
Bottom Left: 5 Pumpkins mini book

In the Middle...
Upper Left: Pumpkins Mini book (Enchanted Learning)
Upper Right: Pumpkin Life Cycle (Enchanted Learning)
Middle: Pumpkin Song (template from Hands of a Child Templates)
Bottom Left: Pumpkin Dot to Dot, ABC order
Bottom Right: From Pumpkin to Jack o'Lantern mini book (Enchanted Learning)

Right Flap...
Bottom Right: Pumpkin Sight Words
Back...
Pumpkin Story (stationary from this book) Here's a few other resources we didn't use ourselves, because I found them after our lapbook was complete, maybe next year!
Pumpkin Mini Book
Pumpkin Mini Books and More (set you can purchase)
Hands on the Pumpkin
Happy Jack O'lanterns
Pumpkin Puzzles (counting)

Carissa-

This is wonderful! I'm so glad you're doing Little Laplinks, and that your sharing your lapbooks with us! They're just wonderful! I'm going to use that Pumpkin Song....too cute, and the Shind for Jesus one is great too!

I can't wait to see what you add next!

God Bless,

Valerie

This is Wonderful!!! We have used several of the things you used. We haven't completed our study yet, so we are not finished. It's fun to see what you did with the same material. Things I wouldn't have even thought of. This is fun! This is our 1st lapbook.
