Bringing Laughter and Learning Together In the Hands of aChild
From the day we first began using and creating Project Packs we fell in love withthem. We knew that this type of hands-on learning experience was just the thingthat was needed to make boring unit studies not only educational but fun andexciting too!
To help you get started with your Project Pack, we have included some of themost frequently asked questions we receive about our Project Packs.
What is a Project Pack?A Project Pack contains both the activities and the lesson plans or researchguide needed to complete the activities. Imagine your child not only learningabout the life cycle of a butterfly, but also creating a cocoon of his or her own.Students don’t just read the story, Blueberry Sal by Robert McCloskey- theyenjoy a “blue day” complete with a recipe for blueberry pancakes, making a“blue” collage, and don’t forget painting a “blue” picture!
Why is this a better way to learn? How does this help me?Student learning improves when lessons incorporate hands-on projects or crafts.Children learn by doing. Project Packs put learning into their hands! Thepossibilities are endless when your student begins a lapbook with a Project Packfrom In the Hands of a Child. There are no age or skill limits and any topic orsubject can be worked into a Project Pack.
When you purchase a Project Pack from In the Hands of a Child, all the work isdone for you-the parent/teacher, but not for the student. In addition, ProjectPacks are easy to store, are an instant review tool, scrapbook, and a ready-madeportfolio of all your student’s studies.
How do I make a Project Pack?A Project Pack is simply a file folder refolded into a shutter-style book. Open afile folder flat, fold each side into the middle and crease the fold neatly. Thereyou have it!
What supplies do I need?You need file folders, paper in different colors and weights*, your student’sfavorite coloring tools, tape, glue, scissors, and a stapler.
*For a more colorful and appealing Project Pack, it is suggested you print someof the reproducible graphics on colorful, multi-purpose paper. We recommend24# weight or cardstock.

Adapting a Project Pack to Fit the Needs of Your Student
Adapting a Project or Research Pack is key to ensuring that you provide the bestlesson for your student. At first glance, some might just skip over an activitybecause they feel it is too easy or too difficult for their student. We want you touse all the activities we provide…they are easily adaptable!
For example, if you have a PK-3 student the vocabulary activities might bedifficult for him or her to complete. Here are some tips to help you adapt theactivities that require your student to write:
1. Have your student dictate vocabulary words and their meanings as youwrite them.
2. Have your child draw a picture instead of writing.3. You write the word or sentence first so your student can see how it is
written (many of our Project Packs also include activities with dotted linesfor easy copy work).
4. Practice. Practice. Practice. In the car, on a walk, in the shopping cart!Practice saying the vocabulary words and what they mean. Before youknow it your preschooler will be telling others what those words mean!
5. Contact us. We would be happy to give you ideas for adapting specificunits to a grade level.
On the other hand, some of the activities may seem too easy for your student.Does your 5th grade level student want to learn about butterflies, but the ProjectPack seems too easy? Try it anyway; just change things up a bit to suit yourstudent’s grade level and skill. Here are some tips to help you adapt theactivities to make them a little more difficult:
1. In addition to writing down vocabulary words and their meanings, ask yourstudent to use the word in a sentence; either verbally or written.
2. Give your student one hour (or reasonable time frame) to research thetopic on his or her own either online or at the library. Give your student aset of questions and see what he or she can find without your guidance.
3. Encourage your student to expand on the topic or choose a relatedsubject to learn about.
4. Take a look at some of our preschool units…there is a lot of clipart relatedto each topic included. Have an older student cut these out and write astory or play about the pictures.
5. Contact us. We would be happy to give you ideas for adapting specificunits to a grade level.
These are just few ways you can adapt a Project Pack to meet the needs of yourstudent. Let your student be the judge if something is too easy or toodifficult…you just might be surprised!

“Where were you when the world stopped turnin’ that September day?”~Alan Jackson
Where were you on Tuesday, September 11, 2001? The daybegan as a beautiful sunny morning in most of the states acrossAmerica. In New York City, it was a normal September day. Thetemperature was warm, the sky was clear, and millions of peoplerushed the streets of the largest city in the United States, on theirway to work.
Just a few minutes after 9:00 a.m., the New York sky turned blackwith smoke, dust, and debris. Two airplanes, hijacked by religiousextremists, had smashed into the twin towers of the World TraceCenter (WTC).
This attack on the United States was believed to be an act of war. Within threedays, President George W. Bush announced that the United States intended tofight against terrorism worldwide. In a televised speech on September 20,2001, President Bush told the American people it would be a long battle,“Americans should not expect one battle, but a lengthy campaign unlike anyother we have ever seen.” He vowed, “we will direct every resource at ourcommand…to the disruption and defeat of the global terror network.”
Attack on the World Trade CentersThe first plane crashed into the north tower about 15 minutes before 9:00 a.m.The second plane crashed into the south tower 18 minutes later. By 10:30 a.m.both of the towers had collapsed.
American Airlines Flight 11On the morning of September 11, American Airlines Flight 11left Boston, Massachusetts, for Los Angeles, California. ABoeing 767, the plane had 92 people on board. Right aftertakeoff, five men took control of the airplane. The onlyweapons they had were box-cutters. They set the course ofthe plane for New York City and at 8:45 a.m., Flight 11
intentionally crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. Not farinto its flight, the plane was full of thousands of gallons of jet fuel which acted likea bomb. A huge explosion ripped an enormous hole in the side of the buildingand caused a fire. It had crashed into the 94th to 99th floors of the tower.
People who worked in the north tower began to evacuate the building.Firefighters, police, and emergency medical personnel rushed to the scene.Most people thought this was a terrible accident and had no idea the city of NewYork was under attack.
