Madeline Unit Study



I love the book Madeline. Seriously, what's not to love? We are going to be doing this book as a unit study/lapbook along with France. So here is what I've come up with so far:

Homeschoolshare.com (this will be a standard link for the FIAR books because they have great free lapbooks!) Here's the direct link for Madeline.
Madeline Coloring Pages
A great link for Information on France (for kids)
Walking by the Way has lots of pictures and ideas for Madeline and France.

How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World


I'm planning for our unit on How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World. It looks like a delightful book.

Homeschoolshare.com has a free lapbook and other resources.
Here's a lesson plan using Google earth.
The Homeschool Mom has a great list of resources.
Busy Cafe has lots of apple theme activities. (Bethany and I have studied apples; so I'm going to focus more on T with the apple things.)
Here's a webquest for the book.
A blogger who has given some details and pictures of her study.

I've already asked a good friend of mine at church to give us pie-making lessons! She is known for her pies. Yummy times!
