An interactive lapbook is a fun way to teach about United States Symbols. I recommend teaching one symbol each day. Start with a book, video, or internet resource to teach about the individual symbol. I love using the website PebbleGo, if your school has a subscription.
Here are the individual projects:
Students fold and glue to create the front cover of the lapbook.
The White House
Students create a white house pocket. They fill out fact cards to store in the pocket.
The Bald Eagle
The Statue of Liberty
The United States Flag
\
The Liberty Bell
My favorite project is the map.
Students draw lines to connect the projects to where they are located in the United States. It helps students to see how many of our United States Symbols are located along the east coast and around Washington D.C.
