Educational Value of Lapbooks
Also known in the homeschooling world as a Lap Book™, flap book, or shutter
book, a lapbook is essentially a kind of 3D graphic organizer that students use to
organize and critically evaluate what they have learned over the course of a unit
study. Lapbooking facilitates active learning, empowering students to be active
participants in their own education. Lapbooks serve as a focal point for a unit study,
helping students recognize the patterns and themes in the unit they are studying. As
the unit progresses, students see the big picture in the 3D graphic representation that
they have created.
Graphic organizers are known to enrich a curriculum by motivating students,
relieving learner boredom, and creating greater interest in the topic at hand.
Students may use graphic organizers as an opportunity to organize their thoughts
and clarify information through discussion or further investigation. The use of
graphic organizers promotes a better understanding of the material covered as well
as improved recall by students.
The 3D interactive quality of lapbooks is especially beneficial to visual and
kinesthetic learners, providing students an additional opportunity to process the
information contained in each lesson as they cut out, fold and complete the relevant
mini booklets, foldables, and 2D graphic organizers and glue them into place in the
folder.
Many students are proud of their creation and eager to share their hard work with
family members and friends, creating more opportunities for review and discussion.
In addition, homeschooling parents can use lapbooks as another method to
document and evaluate their student’s progress through a unit, identifying any areas
in which their student may need additional instruction.

How to Assemble Your Lapbook
Things You Will Need
Your lapbook builder
File folders
Glue sticks or school glue
Scissors
Instructions
Step 1
Open up your file folder. Fold each outer edge towards the center crease until the
tab on the folder just touches the center fold. Since this lapbook requires three file
folders, repeat this process for each folder.
Step 2
Complete the readings and each accompanying project.* Glue the foldables, mini-
booklets, etc. into place according to the instructions and the diagram provided.
When you have filled in all three folders, proceed to Step 3.
Step 3
Line your lapbooks up in front of you in their proper order. Spread glue evenly
over the outside surface of the left hand flap on the middle folder and glue it to
the outside, right hand flap on the first folder. Smooth out any bumpy areas.
Step 4
Spread glue evenly over the outside surface of the right hand flap on the middle
folder and glue it to the outside, left hand flap on the last folder. Smooth out any
bumpy areas.
* The folders for some lapbooks can be glued together before all of the lessons are
completed. This lapbook calls for the use of metal clasps and staples on several of
the connecting flaps. In order to avoid damage to the mini-books on the other
side, I recommend gluing this lapbook together as a last step.

Mini-booklet Assembly
There is no end to the creative types of mini-booklets, foldables, and graphic
organizers that can be used to make a lapbook. As you read through the instructions
for the mini-booklets contained in this lapbook builder you will see that there are
two types of folds that are often referred to. These are hamburger folds and hotdog
folds.
Additional instructions for each lapbook activity are provided in the boxes with
red borders. If a mini-booklet requires you to answer a series of questions, these
questions will be located in a box with the blue borders. In some cases, the blue
boxes will contain additional information that may be useful to the lesson.
Hamburger Fold: describes when
you fold a mini-booklet horizontally
so that the crease runs along the top
or the bottom.
Hotdog Fold: describes when you
fold a mini-booklet vertically so that
the crease runs along the side.

Using the Study Guide
This set of notebooking pages and lapbook builder comes with a study guide
so that you do not have to use an additional text; however, the notebooking
pages and lapbook builder can be adapted to use with materials you may
already be using with your students.
On average, the readings provided with this project pack are at a 10th grade
reading level, perfect for your high school students or advanced readers in
middle school. The readings are written in different styles and from the
perspectives of different authors which will help your students improve their
reading comprehension.
You may also read the study guide out loud to your younger students, taking
the opportunity to discuss the topic as you go. After completing each section of
the study guide, young students should complete the corresponding lapbook
project. Older students can complete the lapbooks or just focus on writing about
what they have learned in the corresponding notebooking pages.
The readings provided have been carefully selected with the intention of
providing a balanced look at this point of time in New Mexican history;
however, there is always more than one perspective in history. Historical
accounts are usually written by the victors. Because of this, the accounts given
are typically biased in favor of the people who achieved a position of power.
Before beginning the lessons, discuss historical perspective with your
homeschoolers, and as you work through the lessons, challenge them to look for
examples of bias in the historical accounts.
“To know the truth of history is to realize
its ultimate myth and its inevitable
ambiguity.”
~Roy P. Basler
