Foldables Week: Social Studies

This is my final foldables post and it's for social studies. I don't teach social studies this year so the pictures are from past years.

Energy Foldable

I received a request to explain how to make some of my foldables. I quickly put together directions for the energy foldable I posted about yesterday. (The others will take a bit longer to get together!)

Foldables Week: Science

The Foldables party continues--today is science! I used to have my kids make lapbooks to go along with each science unit we had. The lapbooks included games, resources, vocabulary cards and (of course) foldables. I haven't made any this year though, so most of the pictures show foldables from then. 

Foldables Week: Math

I looooooooooove foldables! Beth at Thinking of Teaching is hosting a Foldables linky party this week! Be sure to stop by and check out the great resources.

Foldables are such a great addition to our math journals AND the kids always get excited when it's time to make them! Here are a few of them:

COOL Science Website!

I'd like to share an awesome science website that I recently came across. The website has some really neat videos and interactive activities for kids! There are several topics covered and for a variety of ages. I am using this site next week with my kids for friction. Here are some example screen shots:
