Daniel Lapbook--part 1

We have started our fall history---quarter 3 of volume 1 Mystery of History. Thus, the start of a new history lapbook about not just Daniel, but the Babylonian captivity and rulers and the food pyramid and general health information. Homeschool Helper has a Daniel lapbook and most of these links will be from there, denoted by an *. Since we are going in chronological order thru our history book, I'm trying to put it together chronologically also.

Book of Daniel accordian fold*
The Captivity of Babylon
-- this is a group of notebooking pages that I got and I cannot find the site anymore. I will only be using page one and turning it into a booklet. If you want this pdf file, just ask!
The Ishtar Gate -- I made this book on word doc. and can email it to you if you are interested!! Information and picture gathered from bible-history.com.
We will be focusing on what happened with Nebuchednessar II, Daniel, and the food pyramid this next week, taking a "detour" to study Aesop and his fables the next week and continuing on with our MOH lessons--all those during Daniel's lifetime could add little activities to this Daniel lapbook, but the majority will be completed this week.
Food folder game This will be the second folder or a flap (for my preschooler). She may also have a Medley Match-Up game. The older ones will probably also need an extra flap or 2 in this folder for their coloring pages and activities I have found on the food pyramid.
GuestHallow.com has a free health unit based on the book "Food and Nutrition for every Kid". We will be using several of her mini books from her Nutrition lapbook--especially for my oldest:
Vitamin Storage Petal Book
Fats Chart
Fat Accordian
Nutrition Facts Book
Protein fan book

Protein Wheel
Vitamin ABCs long booklet
Saccaride Dbl Flapbook

Examples of saccharides dbl flapbook
What a way to incorporate Science into our school day!!

Change of names tab fold* I may save this for lesson 62 "Shadrach, Meshac and Abed-nego" along with The Fiery Furnace.
Lion's Den* -- a small unit on lions could be given with a classification of lions and what they eat, etc. This will probably be saved for lesson 67, "Darius I"
I will try to add more......but this will get our week started at least ;)

  1. If you still have your Ishtar gate page and captivity of Babylon pages I would love them.

  2. Preparing to teach a class of 4-6 graders at church tonight. Found the picture of Ishtar Gate of Babylon and the Writing on the Wall craft. Great web site. I am now 60 years old, but have a home school background. Thank you for your hard work. I am sure your investment of time and effort will be greatly rewarded by God.

  3. Hi. I'd love your Ishtar Gate book, if you still have it (I couldn't figure out how to send you a personal e-mail.). Thanks! Rebecca (hityourmark09@gmail.com)
