Lapbooks are so versatile! Have you thought of using a lapbook to present a book review? In this example a friend’s younger brother made a lapbook about a book that he enjoyed reading.
There are lots of things you can do with this
– Write about a favourite or important character.
– Write about the story setting.
– Write a summary of the story, you could do this in comic strip form inside an accordian book.
– Write themed vocabulary lists.For example this book was about robots, so make a robot words list.
– Write about what you liked or disliked about the story.
Use lots of drawings, colours and shapes associated with the story. Even deciding what pictures to include is part of the book review process, recalling the places, characters and objects from the story. In this lapbook there were stars, a telescope and a silvery planet to illustrate.
This type of lapbook project is great for a child to do all by himself, as the only reference source required is a book of his choice. Something different for the summer maybe! InshAllah.
