June 2008: Bugs & Bees!

[Valerie]

Well with 25 votes, the June theme will be Bugs and Bees! So really that means, if it creeps, or crawls, or even flies....it's fair game for this month!

Now, I want to tell you all, that at my house we'll be doing a ABC bug Lapbook / Notebook. This means that we'll be going through the alphabet, and for each letter we're going to learn about a new bug.....26 letters, to fit in a one month period....are we crazy? can it be done? I don't know but we're going to try and you're welcome to come along if you like!

Actually we started a little early to get a head start.....but don't worry that's good for you because I've put up a page where you can go and see what we've done so far!
We've even put a name to our little adventure....AlphaBugs....and it's like 26 lapbooks contained in one big notebook binder. (if that makes sense?)

So I've put all my links (so far) All my printables (so far) and All my favorite books (so far) on that page, and you're more then welcome to follow along with my house this month or do your own Creepy Crawly Adventure....whatever way you go, there's lots of fun to be had! There are so many different ways to go here! Here are some ideas to get you started:

Pick your child's favorite bug
Study a few that they don't know about
Extreeme Bugs (like ones that fair crazy conditions or are really creepy looking!)
Insect Olympics (the smallest, largest, fastest....ect)
Blending Bugs (ones that can blend easily with enviornment)
Musical Bugs
Bugs that Light Up

....I'm sure ya'll will pick some great bugs for your kids to study this month! So when you do your blog post this month, let us know if you have an underlying theme? Are you going to focus on anything in particular?

I can't wait to see what everyone does this month! We're already having a great time with this topic!

Blessings,

Valerie

I think I will embark on your alphabugs with 3yo when I'm done with our ABC's with 4yo. Then they will each have their own alphabet lapbook. Yours looks fabulous. I can't wait to get finished and started!
