Awesome Decimal Street Lapbook

Missy over at “The Daniel Academy” has posted a detailed blog on how to make your own Decimal Street Lapbook. Here are a few pictures and a description,

I love lapbooking, and I love MUS. I have been wanting to smoosh the two together for the longest. I kinda did when I made math mini offices for my children, but I wanted to do “Decimal Street” in a lapbook. There are instructions in the curriculum of how to make one out of a poster board, like my first one, but like any homeschool family, we school all over the house and I thought how much easier it would be in a lapbook form.

Math-U-See Robot

I saw this great picture over at the “Land of Boys” blog, enjoy.

Can you tell we have too much fun around here? School in pajamas, building robots out of math blocks? Samuel built this by himself after he finished his math one day.

One person even commented and said, “That looks like 802 times the fun”:-)
