BIG NEWS! The Scrapbooking Unit Study is now downloadable -- check it out:
Learn to scrapbook your unit studies as well as your family adventures, while learning about the history of scrapbooking and famous scrapbooking fans like Mark Twain and Lucy M Montgomery (Anne of Green Gables author)...
You know those boxes of pictures and tubs of mementos, along with the loosely stuffed baby books and photo envelopes with the negatives sliding all over in the back of the closet? These bits and pieces of the past are part of your family legacy, and you can use this four-week unit study to assemble some wonderful scrapbooks that will help tell your stories for generations yet to come. From your mother's cheerleading picture to the tassel from your own high school graduation, all of these have a story to tell. Join me in my move to prepare a lasting library of the history of our family!
What a perfect topic for a unit study for the whole family. We'll all be learning while we gather and organize. I have learned so much while writing this book -- did you know that Thomas Jefferson and Mark Twain were avid scrapbookers? Did you know that girls would include hair weavings in their scrapbooks of the 1800s? I was amazed to find out that Mark Twain probably made more money from a scrapbooking invention than he did from royalties on his books! It is a fun project study, and I can't wait to share it!
One of the most valuable uses for scrapbooking, other than preserving family memories, is to enhance your unit studies. Using scrapbooking, your students can create wonderful memory albums of all that they learned from each unit study. They can include photos of their efforts, experiments and field trips, along with mementoes they collected along the way. Scrapbook your unit studies!
Blessings,
