Last months Insect theme was a blast, it was so fun seeing everyone's wonderful creations....especially because so many of you did differently themed lapbooks! And if you haven't got your photos up yet, don't worry, because you're not the only one!

With our Alphabugs lapbook, we're still chugging away, and it looks like we will continue to work on this over then next month as well....so for those of you following along with us...please know that we'll be posting the minibooks as soon as they're created! (I think we've gotten to letter "i" so far :)

Anyway, we'll also be doing our July Lapbook right alongside everyone too! The votes were tallied, and ya'll picked the Ocean Animals lapbook. It couldn't be a more perfect time for this one........especially if you finish up your learning with a trip to a Beach or Aquarium!

There is an attached Ocean Layer book for marine animals that exhibit bioluminescence at the bottom of this post.

and here are some links to get you started with your planning....

This is going to be fun! I have a Mailbox Magazine theme book on oceans that I used with my older son last year, it will come in handy for this lapbook with ds4, the 3yo. If I come across any other links I'll be sure and add them.

I have some ideas and links on my beach teacher website: http://www.geocities.com/beachteach2007/. I hope that it helps someone!
