Lapbook Activities and Reports Overview

Erica from Confessions of a Homeschooler introduces a lapbook unit study based on 'The Call of the Wild' by Jack London. The study uses the Classic Starts version, suitable for younger readers, and includes comprehension and intuitive thinking questions. The lapbook is a tri-fold structure with mini-books for each chapter, reports, and activities like predictions, timelines, and book vs. movie comparisons.
