We did a lapbook themed around the Grinch last week. This week, Momma is going to work some things up surrounding the the Polar Express. This is a bit more difficult for me, because, unlike the Grinch, I can’t find one (cheap enough) all laid out for me already. So I’m making it up as I go along. *S*
I found plenty of resources online with lots of Ideas, and I’m pooling it all together to make something my kids will enjoy. We’ll read the book, chart a path to the north pole, help the conductor solve some math facts, learn about how the legend of Santa is different around the world, and write a letter to Santa. Then we’ll draw what we’d see out the train window, pull some vocabulary words from the book, sing Christmas Carols while playing with bells, and end it all with a plate of sugar cookies and some hot chocolate while we watch the movie.
Should be fun!
