Oceans Gallore!

Starting in June we're focusing on the Ocean and all it's animals - my youngest will be doing a lapbook on ocean animals, my oldest is putting together a Notebook. Basically we're reading the Magic Tree House octopi book and working from there.

Homeschool Share has free lapbooks for Sharks, Whales, Dolphins, and Reefs
Here's some other fantastic resources we're using for our notebook.
