This post highlights the money lapbook Grace and I made over the last 2 weeks. This post is also to show GRANDMA that we do real schoolwork around here and not just play with goo, bubbles, and fingerpaint.
A lot of the ideas for this lapbook came from Carisa, at 1+1+1=1. Carisa has also graciously provided printables for many of the elements seen here.
Above, Grace is simply sorting coins. The strip at the left helps her to remember the names and values of each coin. This was the first thing we did as we began to learn about money.
Inside: a very cute money poem-which has been memorized, a little book about coin value, and pet store money cards-used to practice counting coins.

Gracie can learn to spell using this element of the lapbook.

Joann,
YOu have no idea how timely this is for my Annie. And the motivation you've given me is priceless. Thank you!
Lindsay is learning all about money too and having lots of fun going "pretend shopping." You are doing a great job Grace. That is a really great lapbook! Nice work getting all of the materials together Joann.
Great job Gracie!!! Now I can see that real learning does go on in the "little house". XX
It's also fun to play......
What a fun way to learn money! I'll have to tuck this idea away for my youngest to do later this spring. My guys love lapbooks ~ especially pulling them out again to re-read or re-inforce what they've learned.
This is so cool! I have some little 'grands' that can take advantage of this wonderful lapbook! Thanks for sharing!!!
