American History ~ Revolutionary War lapbook

I found this great lapbook  based on the book If You Lived During the American Revolution.  This book is a curriculum about the War in itself!  Especially if you combine it with the lapbook too!  Interested...

This is the most extensive lapbook we've done so far.  It was fun and very informative, but I did learn a few things.  

1.  There was a lot of writing, so I did most/all of the writing, while the Professor dictated.
2.  We did it in lumps, several books each day.  I would have spread it out more.
3.  We did the books, saving the cutting and gluing until the end.  In the future, I will cut and glue as we go.

Firepower!

The Professor has recently become interested in guns, canons, battles, etc.  Probably all the study about the Revolutionary War.

We found this kit at Michael's...


He had a blast putting it together!





BOOM!
